Very Computer

I installed 3Com 10/100 Fast Etherlink 3C905 PCI card and ran cfgmgr.
It told me that I need following package:

devices.pci.b7105590

I looked everywhere...I could not find this package on the AIX CD's,the net,
not in the APAR database....
Can someone shed some light and tell me where I can find this package???

P.S.
The closest one I found was devices.pci.b7105090 which I found on the CD's
but it did not work.

Before you buy.

The driver you pointed out is the one I allready tested....
It even indicates so in the README.txt file on the FTP server....

Still looking for b7105590.......

Thanks anyway

Is this adapter supported by IBM? It's been five years in the AIX
business and I have never seen a supported adapter without a proper
driver... Is it THE type of ethernet adapter that IBM sells for RS6K
PCI boxes or it's just one like that? Well, is it ONE of them, IBM
sells many types of PCI ethernet cards...

If it's just a PCI card without IBM support, cfgmgr might be able to
read some config info from the card and tell you what WOULD BE the
driver you need, you will just never be able to find it...because it
might not exist.

Strange. Please send a short post to the ng when you have found the
driver. Thank you.

Doing AIX support was the most monty-pythonesque
activity available at the time.
