Yes, it does.  I am running 3.2 on a 3Com 3c905-B, which worked fine
OOTB (GENERIC) kernel.  You may have trouble with the second card, and
have to
do some kernel config and build to remove the conflicts due to two cards
of the same type.  

Here is dmesg from my 905B:


xl0: <3Com 3c905B-TX Fast Etherlink XL> rev 0x30 int a irq 17 on
pci0.17.0
