    The 3c905 module that comes with RH6 should work fine. A couple of notes:

    1) If it's a combo card (and I think the whole series are various
    configurations of combo) you will have to boot to DOS and use the config
    utility from 3com to tell it what hardware (ie BNC, AUX or 10B-T) to use.
    Auto never seems to work...

    2) In the conf.modules alias, don't pass and irq or memory parameters... it
    will cause the card to hang... The module will find the info on its own...

    If you have any problems, please feel free to drop me a note, I use a ton of
    3Com nics.

    Cheers,
    Ken
