I think that the following lpsci output applies to my machine.
02:0c.0 Ethernet controller: 3Com Corporation 3c905C-TX/TX-M [Tornado]
(rev 78)
Subsystem: Dell Computer Corporation: Unknown device 010d
Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 11
I/O ports at ec80 [size=128]
Memory at fe1ffc00 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=128]
Expansion ROM at fe200000 [disabled] [size=128K]
Capabilities: <available only to root>
I forgot to right some important things down.
The output is actually from its brother, on which I am not root.
Hi Mike
I nearly asked if it was a 3com card in my original post! I had a problem
with a couple of servers at work with the same card. I'll delve back into
what I did to sort it, it was a couple of years back so I can't remember off
the top of my head.
