i have a dell inspiron 8200 with rh7.3, rh8, and win xp. it has an internal 3Com network card that uses the 3c59x driver. the message log file has it listed as a 3Com pci 3c905c tornado. it works in rh7.3, but it (eth0) fails to activate on boot using rh8, and i can't get it to work using the network config program. trying to activate it there also fails. it's connected to a 4 port dsl router which assigns ip addys automatically and the router works with 3 other dell inspirons, 2 other pc card nics, and 3 different rh7.3 kernels. i think it's safe to say that the rh8 eth0 driver is at fault.
i don't know what to do next. there are no errata about this at redhat, and a quick skim of the psyche list didn't reveal any reported problems or solutions.
thanks,
philip dahlquist
