Thanks, this driver compiles fine.

Unfortunality we rename all interfaces using ifrename to make sure that the 
interface names won't change with different kernel versions (we have this 
problem when we switch between 2.4. and 2.6.). So it is normal that the oops 
occurs on unloading the modules?


Btw, on 22th June I got another skge.c patch from Herbert Xu to fix another 
oops:

http://lkml.org/lkml/2004/6/22/44

This patch applies fine on top of your new versions (with 400 lines offset), 
maybe this patch should also be included into the current BK tree?

Thanks a lot,
	Bernd
