I have downloaded the linux kernel source from kernel.org and I have followed various steps that I have readed in a manual. 
I can work with a crossover connection to other machine (I have moved 4GB of this machine to other machine), and I can connect me to internet.
If you don't know: the 3Com adapter is onboard. It can be the difference with your card.
Things that I have tried, and I remember today (with the same result) are:
 - Disable IPV6
 - Disable tcp_window_scalling, tcp_timestamps and tcp_sack
 - Install another Ubuntu's version (7.10 Desktop, 8.04 LTS Desktop, 9.04 Server, 9.04 Desktop)
 - Install Debian
 - Install Mandrake 8.1
 - Boot from the Ubuntu live CD (7.10,8.04,9.04)
 - Change the speed and the duplex mode
 - Autoconfigure the NIC with an 3Com tool 
 - Add 3c59x to /etc/modules
