hi all, i don't suppose that anyone can offer help for compiling a newer version of the 8139too netcard driver? i have the 0.9.15 version installed on my system. it mostly works but i have been having some flakiness. according to the release notes, version 0.9.22a is the latest and greatest and it fixes a number of things that could be what i am experiencing. however, i have no experience at compiling linux drivers. i extract all the files that came with the .gz file from sourceforge. it has a makefile, but if i cd to the dir that i have extracted to and do a make in that dir, it complains about can't find some linux header files. i have all the source installed on my machine. i don't know if i should try to hack the makefile or the 8139too.c file to try and get it to find all the right files and dirs it needs or if there is an easier way. setting some ENVs or something. i have tried as both my username and as root. no solution to either. any thoughts? anyone have a pre-build version? i am running LM8.0 Kernel 2.4.3-20mdksmp many thanks, moose.
