I am cannot seem to get this !#@$% 3com card to work. I looked on sunsolve, 
etc... Maybe I missed something.

Solaris7 x86, Oct 98.
3com - Etherlink 10/100 - 3c905c

prtconf -V shows:

	pci8086,7112
	pci8086,7113
	pci8086,5345
	pci10b7,1000  <- 3com???

/etc/driver_aliases:

	elx "pci10b7,5900"
	elx "pci10b7,5950"
	elxl "pci10b7,9000"
	elxl "pci10b7,9001"
	elxl "pci10b7,9050"
	elxl "pci10b7,9055"
	elxl "pci10b7,9056"
	elxl "pci10b7,9004"
	elxl "pci10b7,9005"
	elxl "pci10b7,9006"

I tried adding 'elx "pci10b7,1000"' and rebooting, after which I could plumb 
and configure the device. But it did'nt work. arp,ping,etc.. showed nothing. 
(my routes were fine, interface was properly configure IP and netmask, 
interface was up).

Any help appreciated.
