So, it was apparently something wrong with my haiku install - i wiped the partition and re-installed fresh (instead of using the usual jam install-haiku over my existing rev) and it seemed to work after that. The 3com driver works well! I decided to test a few more cards I had lying around here and I was able to test the following cards that worked for the following drivers: 3com 10b7:9050 3Com 3C905-TX (A) 10b7:9055 3Com 3C905B-TX (tried both rev B and D) 10b7:9200 3Com 3C905C-TX etherpci 10ec:8029 SMC1208T (RTL-8029) rtl8139 (new) 1186:1300 D-Link DFE-530TX+ Rev.E1 (RTL8139) 1113:1211 Accton Technology Corp SMC2-1211TX not working 1317:0985 Linksys LNE100TX (ADMTek NC100 Network Everywhere 10/100) The LNE100TX is a crappy card - I could care less if it ever gets supported, but if the driver is easy to port, maybe it's worth it. I suspect there are a lot of these cards floating around out there since they were a cheap-o off-the-shelf retail-store card for a long time (I think this one only cost $14-$20 USD five or six years ago) I have some 3c900 series cards floating around somewhere (10-baseT, including a few combo cards with 10-base2 and AAUI connectors... I actually do have the coax and a hub to test that if I want to :) Somewhere around here is the Netgear FA-311 (DP83815) and I'm certain I have another NE2k card somewhere as well. Will test when I find them! Thanks again for porting those drivers, they appear to work extremely well! - Urias
