I cannot get my 3c905B card to work at all ... There was a hack that I
read somewhere that takes out the following lines:

        outw(TxReset, ioaddr + EL3_CMD);
        for (i = 2000; i >= 0 ; i--)
                if ( ! (inw(ioaddr + EL3_STATUS) & CmdInProgress))
                        break;

        outw(RxReset, ioaddr + EL3_CMD);
        /* Wait a few ticks for the RxReset command to complete. */
        for (i = 2000; i >= 0 ; i--)
                if ( ! (inw(ioaddr + EL3_STATUS) & CmdInProgress))
                        break;  

but it seems that this breaks the driver under certain conditions... has
anyone else got a solution for me? Yes ... I've read the ethernet-howto
and it doesn't work.

Thanks to anyone who can help me ...
