FYI, there are two things I am trying to get working properly. The driver I mentioned was the HostAP wireless driver so my machine can act as a wireless Access Point. There are some missing symbols when I try to load the module.
The problem is with the IO across the PCI bus. I tried to fix it and I can load the module now but it just hangs. The machine still works fine but I then cant load or unload the module. And the second is some unaligned traps from the iptables code. I have a patch for the iptables code and I sort of understand most of it. But not all. > From: Rob B <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Date: Thu, 18 Dec 2003 00:22:39 +1100 > To: DE LUCA Ben <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Cc: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: Re: [SLUG] Help with some kernel hacking > > At 05:15 PM 17/12/2003, DE LUCA Ben sent this up the stick: >> Hey there, im trying to port a device driver from x86 to my alpha , im very >> new to kernel development and to the alpha platform.
