System: Mainboard MSI nForce K7N415 Pro OS SUSE 8.2 updated kernel k_athlon-2.4.20-100 and kernel-source-2.4.20.SuSE-100 I compiled forcedeth 0.18 as external module by "make" using the makefile --------- KERNELDIR = /usr/src/linux CFLAGS = -D__KERNEL__ -DMODULE -I$(KERNELDIR)/include -O all: forcedeth.o --------- forcedeth.o is replacing nvnet.o and working so far without any problem. The only output I get in my /var/log/messages is: --------- Nov 20 08:22:52 linux kernel: forcedeth.c: Reverse Engineered nForce ethernet driver. Version 0.18. Nov 20 08:22:52 linux kernel: PCI: Setting latency timer of device 00:04.0 to 64 Nov 20 08:22:52 linux kernel: eth0: forcedeth.c: subsystem: 01462:373c --------- Is it possible to publish forcedeth.c in future releases as I prefer compiling as an external module to patching the sources? Anyway - thank's a lot for the great driver, hopefully Nvidia will think about their non-disclosure policy now. Hans
