    I have several 3c905 and 3c905B running on RH4.2 & RH5.0 with no
    problems. I even have a few eepros on the same OSes, but IMHO they suck
    I'd much rather use 3com. Don't use 'gated', don't need it don't want it
    so I can't help with that problem but I don't believe there to be a
    problem with the 3c905 drivers.
