Ok: success: 3com MHz 3CCFEM556B and Tecra 8000

I have made a 3COM MHz 3CCFEM556B multifunction card to work under redhat 6.1 on a Tecra 8000 (366MHz PII). I had to make a change to the 3c574_cs.c driver program to get it to allocate the I/O ports otherwise it failed to do so. Now it runs mostly fine, at least with the 100BASE-TX connection I am using. Occasionally I may get kernel messages like that: eth0: Too much work in interrupt, status 2091. (or 2011) eth0: interrupt(s) dropped! but I don't notice any problems using netscape, telnet, etc. Also, cardmgr initially recognizes it as a memory card, but I changed the init script to eject it and then reinsert it and things are fine from that point on. Please let me know if I should post the fixes. George
