Just make sure your kernel config file has the following line in it. device xl # 3Com 3c90x (``Boomerang'', ``Cyclone'') This will give the following on startup: xl0: <3Com 3cSOHO100-TX OfficeConnect> port 0xe400-0xe47f mem 0xec001000-0xec00107f irq 12 at device 9.0 on pci0 xl0: Ethernet address: 00:01:02:66:5c:36 miibus1: <MII bus> on xl0 xlphy0: <3Com internal media interface> on miibus1 xlphy0: 10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, auto The funny thing is that this driver is in the GENERIC kernel. Do you get any messages related to xl0 in dmesg? > Cheers Hannes No problem.
