I am a newbe and need help to setup my 3com eterlink 3 or 509b so that I can
telnet to download xfree86.  I am running redhat 5.0 and It came with
xwindows but it wont load because it doesn't support my all-in-wonder pro.
Any help is thanked.

The thing that turned out to be key in setting up my 3C509b was
disabling plug and play.  If you can run the MSDOS utility that came
with the card (or is available for download from 3Com), you should be
able to disable PNP on the card.  This should make it much easier to get
the card going.

1. 3C905 Network Card detected as a Vortex Network Card (3c59X series)

    I have a problem in connecting my Linux Server. I already had a
linux server working and
was planning to add a newer machine to replace it. In the new machine, I
had a 3c905
network card (Boomerang Series) but RedHat detects it as a Vortex Series
Network card
(3c59x). I continued on with the installation and  connected the 2 Linux
machines in a hub.
However, when I tried to check the connection using the ping command,
time-out error
occurred. Is it because of wrong detection of network or something else?
Any help would be
greatly appreciated.

Thanks

PS. Please reply to my e-mail address if possible. I might not be able
to get the answer on
time if posted in the Usenet.
