>Description:
I have a 3C900B card that has a subtly different device ID than the 900B that is supported by the xl driver.  I found that I could make it work by adding an entry for it and making it behave like the 0x9005 card, but I can't see how to submit my change for consideration.

I changed if_xlreg.h (one line added)
and also some changes to if_xl.c

It now works.
 How may I submit my additions to help you work on more hardware?

>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:

add my changes to treat this 0x9006 device the same as the 0x9005 device.  It is working dandy so far.
