Am looking for advice as to which PCI 100BaseT networking
card I can use in my Linux 2.0.27 system (the machine is a
dual PII 400).  Have tried several and cannot seem to get them
to work.

In particular, recently bought the HP 10/100VG J2585B PCLAN
card.  I have it set to the defaults on a PCI IRQ which is NOT
being used by other devices.  I have compiled the driver into
the kernel and it does not seem to work.

If someone can give me any specifics as to WHAT they had to do
I would greatly appreciate it.  I have had NO problems with
3Com 3C509B TPO's.....I have tons of them in production.  However,
I would LOVE to start upgrading to a 100MB, PCI card.

Any help is GREATLY appreciated, Happy Holidays!

Mike
