There is only one hurdle left to take. For my 3C905C-TX-M I wan't to use the latest vendor driver since I heard the famous 3c59x is not optimal for that card. The driver of choice is: http://support.3com.com/infodeli/tools/nic/linux/3c90x-102.tar.gz. How do I compile this source (3c90x.c and 3c90x.h) directly into the kernel (not as a module)? And how as a module inside a my-kernel_modules.deb like ALSA get's compiled?
