Hi,
While compiling my new 2.6.9 kernel, I noticed a large number of compile
warnings being emitted while the eepro100 driver was being compiled.
Sorry I didn't capture the exact text, but they were all something about
converting a pointer to an integer without a cast.
This is most likely nothing more than an annoyance. I doubt that the
driver is broken (though I haven't tried it yet).
Thanks

Hi Graham,
The eepro100 driver is in the process of being depricated in favour of
the e100 driver so please use that instead.
I have closed the bug as it almost certainly does not effect the
behaviour of the driver (i.e. it works) and cosmetic changes to
a deprecated driver seem to be a red herring to say the least.
Incidently, the e100 driver compiles without warnings as far
as I can see.
