acx-20060215 for etch

[jeffery]

pci.c needed a fix for etch..

I added the includes for utsrelease.h as they were needed for the 
declaration of UTS_RELEASE in debian etch...

as the acx tarball downloaded into debian etch:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

~~~~~~~~~~~

after researching and discovering these declarations had been put into 
separate includes.h for etch,
I entered pci.c and in the includes header added the line

#include <linux/utsrelease.h>

and it compiled beautifully.
I haven't touched source code for over 12 years.
Totally made my day.

 This is an old tarball. Current in etch is acx-20060521-3. If you do
want to fix it up for Debian, you want to talk to the Debian maintainer
for it. (you can get info about the package at
http://packages.qa.debian.org/a/acx100.html)
