Well, there is 0.3.0 which is just 0.2.0 whith _minor_ changes to
allow it work with 2.1.x & 2.2.x kernels. Otherwise, they are the
same.

    John> Anybody had more success?

Well, I have used 6pack with 2.0.34, 2.0.35, various intermediate
pre-patches and now with 2.0.36 without a problem. I have booted a couple
of times with 2.2.1 and 0.3.0 seems to work OK (I have to upgrade a 
couple of things before I can go with 2.2.1).

Roumors say there is a multiple TNC-ring 6pack driver (with a thingy
similar to mkiss) near completion. Stay tuned!

P.D. To Salvador: Para compilar 6pack en un sistema con glibc hay que
eliminar un par de includes del fichero 6pack.c, ya que sino aparecen
redefiniciones de funciones, estructuras y demas.  (for those of you
that don't grok Spanish: there are a couple of #include's you have to
delete to compile 6pack.c with gblic)
