Some time ago I tried a bunch of ISA network cards on alpha and afair I couldn't get any of them to work. Maybe the 3com cards, but I'm not sure. I submitted a PR, but I believe it was recently closed because I could not repeat the test again on a recent version. So YMMV, quite a lot actully. =09-jake --=20 Jarkko Santala <jake(=E4t)iki.fi> System Administrator http://iki.fi/jake= /
