Bug#218753: RFP: sk98lin-source -- updated sk98lin gigabit ethernet adapter
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
* Package name : kernel-patch-sk98lin
Version : 6.18
Upstream Author : support@syskonnect.com

Description : updated sk98lin compliant gigabit ethernet adapter
Supports Linux 2.4.13 and above. May probably be done as a sk98lin-source
package (similar to bcm5700-source) too.
As this updated driver provides support for 3rd party NICs as well:

and newer MBs come with builtin gigabit NICs, a package would be very
useful.
I did built the driver using:
http://www.syskonnect.de/syskonnect/support/driver/htm/sk98lin_inst_p.htm
and kernel 2.4.22, and it seems to work fine with a 3com gigabit lom
(3c940) on an a7v600 mobo (though 'depmod -a' reports 'Unresolved symbols
in /lib/modules/2.4.22-1-k7/kernel/drivers/net/sk98lin/sk98lin.o').
Cheers,
Cristian
