I am currently looking for a 3com 3c509 (EtherLink III) driver for Linux.
nelson@crynwyr.crynwyr.com mentioned someone is working on one. Who is it?
I would be prepared to act as an Alpha/Beta site, and/or help in getting the
code up and running. Failing that, I would be keen on writing a driver
myself.
A useful piece of information is that there is now an NCSA packet driver
available for the card (which works), which is at
watson.cc.columbia.edu
in
/packet-drivers/bin/3c509.com
If you get the latest zip file, the sources are in there too:
/packet-drivers/new/3c509a.zip
which may be of interest generally, and would certainly give some serious
clues to anyone seriously working on a driver (maybe even me).
Email would be very much appreciated. A tar.Z.uu of a working driver would
be appreciated even more! :-)
