I have installed a 3C905B-Tx in a linux box in a token ring- ehernet
enviroment.
The card works fine but regrettably it only sees the machines on the
ethernet side of the net it cannot ping the machines on the token ring
side.
When I ping to the broadcast addresses the machine receives the answers
of all the machines of the net. The card works fine on W95.
I suspect that the problem is on the big endian- little endian problem
but I dont know how to fix it.
Below is the network diagram of the network

Etherneth Side
9000 Token Ring Side
