Thanks for the response Alvin. I was about to pull my hair out. So
I assume from the eepro100.c file on your site that I can compile
this one and it runs without the pci-scan.o? Also, is it already
patched or do I need to patch it? Forgive my ignorance but how do I
patch it if I need to. No need for X11.
I see from the discussions pointed to on your site the need for a
patch. The last question, will this work with kernet 2.2.14 or will
I have to compile 2.2.16 ?
Thanks again for your help!
Rob
