Does anyone know where I can find 3Com 3C905B-TX NIC driver for Solaris 9
SPARC version?  I want to install one on my Blade 150 machine.

3Com doesn't seem to make such beasties.  Any reason why you're not 
using a supported NIC so you don't have to go through this hassle with 
discontinued hardware (or do you like making your life difficult)?

I checked on 3Com's site and here:

Most of the driver development tends to be for X86 as that box has the 
most different types of hardware.

My guess: you're out of luck.  Use a supported NIC.

Somebody has written an experimental beta test driver at

I've never tried it. The real supported things are easy enough to pick
up, and I never really liked the driver hell these cards went through in
Windows anyway.
