Well if I well understand you reached to recompile hppa linux kernel 
with module for 3c95x: congratulation.
But to load modules, they have to be build for the kernel you are 
running (I think that will change in 2.6). So the only  think to do now 
is to _reboot_ with the kernel you just rebuild for your nic :)
