in basically all my machines, I have 3com 3c905Bs. The same thing happens in
every single machine, GENERIC or custom kernel. hmmm.....

Hi there.

I'm setting up a Compaq Deskpro with 3 identical NIC's (3Com 3c905B), and
all three cards works out of the box.

The strange thing is that I get the following messages from the kernel durin
boot or via dmesg.

As you can se two of the NIC's behave diffeently. Anyone know what this mean
or how to correct it?

Clipping from dmesg output:

xl0 at pci0 dev 2 function 0 "3Com 3c905B 100Base-TX" rev 0x30: irq 11xl0:
