Ok, looks like a 3Com 3c556b, I've heard [here] that the ethernet card,
but not the modem, has been reported as working, and this page 

               http://www2.neweb.ne.jp/wd/fbm/3c556/

Seems to have patches.

Also, the 2.2.18 kernel [out yesterday, I think] has the following note in
the release notes: 

               http://www.linux.org.uk/VERSION/relnotes.2218.html
