If you'd taken the time to glance at the ethernet howto, or dropped on into
http://www.scyld.com/ you'd see everything you wanted to know about ethernet
under Linux.
The 3com 3c595 uses the 3c59x driver.
So that there are some exciting things left to do in the world, I leave you
with the personal battle of figuring out how to modprobe the driver.
man modprobe

Regarding PCI devices under Linux, they're configured by BIOS32, try the PCI
HowTo.

Regards, Kerry.
