Re: [long] Lance on DS5k/200
You really should read around before hacking :-)
http://www.skynet.ie/~airlied/mips/declance_2_3_48.c
is the declance driver for the DS5000/200, I'm not sure it still works but
it did the last time I looked at it .. the declance.c in the same dir is
for 2.2 kernel.. I must rename them someday..
