3C905B-TX Wake on lan + ethtool problem

Hi,
after 1 week of trying to get my 3C905B-TX to do wake on lan on a
debian 2.6.4 kernel, I have to ask for help.
The board is a P2LB (WOL ist enabled in bios, power cable from nic to
board is plugged).
I use a 2.6.4 kernel with the standard 3c59x driver. It's compiled
with module support.
The NIC works fine except for wake-on-lan. There is no way to get the
debian wake up with my magic packets.
I tried to compile the 3c59x.c from the scyld.com site, but I got 100
of warnings and errors. I also find it very strange, that "ethtool
eth0" returns:
"Settings for eth0:
No data available"
I have no problem with 100FD speed or whatsoever. My question is just:
how do I get debian 2.6.4 to wake on lan with the 3com 3C905B-TX. here
follows the informations, that could help:
Thank you a lot for your precious time !

Using the default interface 'eth0'.
  Using the new SIOCGMIIPHY value on PHY 24 (BMCR 0x3000).
 The autonegotiated capability is 0100.
The autonegotiated media type is 100baseTx-FD.
 Basic mode control register 0x3000: Auto-negotiation enabled.
 You have link beat, and everything is working OK.
   This transceiver is capable of  100baseTx-FD 100baseTx 10baseT-FD 10baseT.
   Able to perform Auto-negotiation, negotiation complete.
 Your link partner advertised 4101: 100baseTx-FD.
   End of basic transceiver information.
