Hello!

On a P-II -300 with 128MB of memory
I made an update (-stable of Sep. 19 or a few days earlier)
from 2.2.5-Release. (or 2.2-stable shortly after 2.2.5-release)

All update went smoothly, except, that the new compiled kernel
doesn't recognize 3c905 card..
The generic kernel does.

GENERIC:
Oct  5 01:37:31 astra /kernel: vx0 <3
Oct  5 01:37:31 astra /kernel: COM 3C905 Fast Etherlink XL PCI> rev 0 int a irq
11 on pci0:12:0
Oct  5 01:37:31 astra /kernel: mii[*mii*] address 00:60:97:d1:52:35
Oct  5 01:37:31 astra /kernel: Probing for devices on PCI bus 1:


compiled kernel:
Oct  5 01:29:46 astra /kernel: pci0:12:
Oct  5 01:29:46 astra /kernel: vendor=0x10b7, device=0x9050, class=network (ethe
rnet) int a irq 11 [no driver assigned]

The GENERIC kernel from 2.2.5-RELEASE was recognizeing it this way :
(in the mean time I switched off the auto select option)
Oct  4 23:44:53 astra /kernel.old: vx0 <3COM 3C905 Fast Etherlink XL PCI> rev 0
int a irq 11 on pci0:12
Oct  4 23:44:53 astra /kernel.old: mii[*mii*]: disable 'auto select' with DOS ut
il! address 00:60:97:d1:52:35

I do have 
device vx0
in the kernel configuration.

Any idea, what can be the problem ?
Also, why doe the kernel (the upper output) splits the output into two
lines (I mean : vx0<3    and then COM 3C905...) ?

Thanks,

IgoR
