Hi
Thanks again to Jeff Kirsher for the detailed answer regarding backporting the
driver.After understanding no backporting is needed for the e1000 to work with
3.2.x (kcompat does the API adjustments) I've tried compiling the driver and it
works fine.
According to documentation:"For the build to work properly, the currently
running kernel MUST match the version and configuration of the installed kernel
sources. If you have just recompiled the kernel reboot the system before
building".
However I would like to know if the driver build system supports building the
driver not for the currently running kernel.
Thanks,Tal
