Hi,
there's a new sk98lin driver available from
http://www.syskonnect.com/syskonnect/support/driver/zip/linux/install-7_09.tar.bz2
(now with ethtool support) dated Oct 20. It's not in 2.6.10-rc1, will it be included in 2.6.10?
Thanks,
Michael

I think Stephen Hemminger volunteered to split up the changes into
separate patches.

OK, that will probably take quite a while, the patch is large. Thanks for the info!

This is the first set of patches to merge some of the new SysKonnect
code with existing 2.6 driver and fix several bugs.
1: Remove explicit module refcounting (bug)
2: Make OnesHash table local constant.
3: proc print interface cleanup
4: Use netdev_priv
5: Use module_param_array instead of deprecated MODULE_PARM
6: Add netpoll controller support
7: Basic ethtool support
8: Ethtool support for LED blinking
9: Ethtool pause param support
10: Cleanup
11: Fix boards_found count
12: Add MODULE_VERSION
13: Handle ring full condition properly (bug)
14: Get rid of obfuscation irqreturn_t
15: Rearrange functions to match SysKonnect code
16: More efficient OsGetTime
17: Enable high dma and lockless transmit
18: reorganize pci_device table
19: Do initialization better
20: Ethtool tx & receive checksum efficiently
21: Tx ring management improvements
22: Cleanup the code under DIAG_SUPPORT
23: Eliminate Pnmi scratchpad common
To spare people's mailbox the individual patches won't go to LKML just to netdev.
