This driver is just horrible ! It dumps tons of unused debug/warning
message to var/log. It makes the kernel ooops, connection drops
without notice. I am using it right now all I want to do is very very
simple: how do I build just a kernel module from source of a running
kernel.
I do have the source, I just want to make it the debian way until
linux 2.6.40 comes out with this exact driver.

thanks
