Hi,
You don't need any compilation. Slackware 3.6 already contains the
compiled driver for via-rhine. You only need to add a line,
/sbin/modprobe via-rhine
in the Network device support section of /etc/rc.d/rc.modules.
Then reboot, voila, you are in the LAN (if you already setup
the network).
Hope this helps.
