3C905 + options=0x8

[Marco Berizzi]

Hello everybody.

I have found a strange 3C905 behaviour on linux 2.4.22 (same behaviuor
with 2.4.19)
When the linux box boot with /etc/modules.conf containing:
options 3c59x options=0x8,0x8,0x8

the 3C905 NICs don't receive/send packet.
3C905B NIC is working good.

This is the relevant section from dmesg:
