If XF86Setup is installed ('dpkg --list xf86setup' will tell you if it is),
then run /usr/bin/X11/XF86Setup for a semi graphical setup. I had problems
with the mouse when doing so. Removing gpm ('dpkg --remove gpm') solved
the problem.

Run 'modconf' (without the quotes) as root and go into the net sub-section
and try to install the module for 3c59x. The source code for this driver
says the following:
This driver is for the 3Com "Vortex" and "Boomerang" series ethercards.
Members of the series include Fast EtherLink 3c590/3c592/3c595/3c597
and the EtherLink XL 3c900 and 3c905 cards.

men.
