Many thanks to Jeff Garzik for jumping in > and getting this organized with a keen eye on the future layout. > > Signed-off-by: Auke Kok Thanks for posting the patch in a git-am friendly format :) I merged this into netdev-2.6.git#e1000e just now, and pulled it into netdev-2.6.git#ALL so that Andrew's -mm tree will automatically pick up this driver. Please submit e1000e in the form of follow-up patches to #e1000e, rather than reposting the entire driver. We'll leave it on this side branch for a little while, to give others a chance to review and test, and give you (auke) a chance to update for Andi's comments etc. Jeff
