I think that the following lpsci output applies to my machine.
02:0c.0 Ethernet controller: 3Com Corporation 3c905C-TX/TX-M [Tornado] (rev 78)
Subsystem: Dell Computer Corporation: Unknown device 010d
Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 11
I/O ports at ec80 [size=128]
Memory at fe1ffc00 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=128]
Expansion ROM at fe200000 [disabled] [size=128K]
Capabilities: <available only to root>
I forgot to right some important things down.
The output is actually from its brother, on which I am not root.
I've recalled what I did - I ripped out the 3coms and put in netgear ones as I was short of time at the time. Looks like you don't have access to the machine to do physical alterations so I found this that might help you get on track...
