Has the maintainer dropped the ball on this? The module has never gone through any name change: /lib/modules/2.6.9/kernel/drivers/net/sk98lin/sk98lin.ko I have dowloaded the patch from SysKonnect http://www.syskonnect.com/syskonnect/support/driver/d0102_driver.html There are instructions for patching the sk98in driver. I have successfully patched updated the driver and currently have it working in 2.6.9 Who is the kernel maintainer for this? Why hasn't the patch listed above and dated October 20, 2004 been incorporated? Thanks, RaXeT
