I'm currently using a 3c905 (rev b, combo version) with fedora without
any problems. I'm wondering what "headaches" it's causing you.

The Realtek cards are ok, but a bit broken by design (the driver works
around that, but don't be surprised when your logs show "hanging
transceiver reset" or other vague messages. I've had no problems with
Intel and Digital cards.
