3c575 ifconfig oops / segmentation fault with 2.0.85 => OK with 2.0.88

Hi Tom !
thanks for your quick reply ....

 I have tried the new 2.0.88. the built is still based on a more same old
driver
(3c59x.c:v0.99Q 5/16/2000 ... )  but it _DOES_ work.

thanks a lot !

I tried the cardbus.o yesterday ... but insmod gave me some unresolved
symbol for find_io_region, undo_irq, try_irq and find_mem_region.
(I have the same result w/ the 2.0.88)
