I'm running several Dell GX1 with version 3c905B (version 4 as I recall)
with 3c59x.c:v0.99E with Rob Riggs patch 7 from
http://www.devilsthumb.com/~rob/#boomerang No problems at all, but
then again I'm on an HP switch and only at 10 Mbps 10bT.  I've run the
flood ping stuff against each other on an isolated hub (again 10 Mbps)
with no ill effects.  -- John
