3COM 3C990 NIC

Is anyone maintaining the 3C990 driver? I'm using the code from 3COM and
it doesn't look like it's been kept up to date with the various kernel
changes. I'm also using the latest Red Hat kernel in case it matters.

When compiling with SMP support, I'm getting the following errors during
a depmod -ae

depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in
/lib/modules/2.4.18-17.8.0smp/kernel/drivers/net/3c990.o

I get no problems in the single processor compile & depmod. Can these be
safely ignored? The SMP #define simply includes the spinlock stuff.

#ifdef SMP
#include <linux/spinlock.h>
#endif
