Actually the card was a 3c905, and the driver from the web site
worked fine. Now I have another problem with 2.0.30 that was not in
2.0.27. I initially compiled my mouse (psaux) as a module, and when X
started it said it could not open psaux (device or resource busy). I
tried compiling it into the kernel, and the X started OK, but neither the
mouse or keyboard would work at all. I couldn't even do Ctrl-Alt-BS -- I
had to telnet in from elsewhere and kill X, at which point the keyboard
worked fine. X worked fine with the 2.0.27 that came with Red Hat.

Thanks,
Jen
