I'm trying to enable my 3c905c card to run on RedHat 7.2 On boot, eth0 fails
to install (possibly as the driver being used is 3c59x). I've downloaded the
linux driver (3c90x) for my 3COM card but am unable to compile it. It looks
for a header file netdivert.h which does not exist. 
1. Am I correct in using the 3c90x driver for my 3c905c card? (or will 3c59x
do)
2. If so, am I able to download the .o (compiled) file from anywhere?
3. If not downloadable, any ideas on how to get 3c90x.c to compile?

Many thanks
Nick Pay
