I would love to get my hands on some 3c509 cards. Unfortunately, sending them to me (Brazil) would cost more than getting some 3c905 boards here.

Those cards are great to connect old K6/Pentium machines (firewalls) to ADSL modems.

I too. In fact, I still am. Have 3 in an IPCop machine right now. Converted all machines from coax to TP just a few months ago.

My wife is also intolerant. But I commandeered a room "of my own" and she stays the hell out of it, not even cleaning allowed by her. Anyway, I would like those cards. I need to make some more IPCop machines out of an old Aptiva and other junk.

Let me see how many I can dig out of boxes. You can have them if you pick up the tab to ship 'em. I'm happy to see them "go to a good home" rather than get tossed in the trash bin. Maybe I should just create a quick 'n dirty web page with an inventory of stuff I don't need for the list. Of course, that means I'd have to actually sort through the stuff. 8-)

Cheers,

Be glad to pick up the fgt plus. I'll keep an eye open here, or you can mail mer privately.

TIA Bill

I need driver 3c509 (ISA BOARD) to CENTOS 4.2.

I might be wrong at this, since I only checked the .config file, but from what I noticed, these drivers are still on the newer kernels. They are just not compiled by default for CentOS.

I just checked my mythtv/centos4 box that has a centosplus unsupported kernel on it, and Adriano may be pleased to hear that the file /lib/modules/2.6.9-11.106.unsupported/kernel/drivers/net/3c509.ko does indeed exist.

So all you should need to do is go have a look at:

http://mirror.centos.org/centos-4/4.2/centosplus/Readme.txt

Dear Keith Morser

I read documentation below and I understood that I need to compile KERNEL.

How I compile KERNEL CENTOS ?

I downloaded kernel source, but when I have compile,but I have received erros directory ASM not found.

Thanks for help.

Dear Friends,

I need driver 3c509 (ISA BOARD) to CENTOS 4.2.

Thanks

The last time I tried enabling an ancient card like this, I came close to not succeeding. These drivers have been dropped from the newer kernels. You'll have to find the ethernet driver web site http://www.scyld.com/3c509.html

and most likely download, compile, and load this driver.
