Ryan, Is this the same kernel as before, 2.6.28-11 ? Did any of the previous driver packages worked? All, Could somebody please send me the "7mdv" sources (I guess a *.deb file will do)? I don't think they are posted yet. I checked the Zsolt's site, there is some "7mdv" RPM that references my first patch that didn't compile on 2.6.28. So I guess it does not match the "7mdv" files Marvin was talking about: > > dkms-agrsm-2.1.80-7mdv2009.0.tar.gz > > dkms-agrsm_2.1.80-7_i386.deb There is also an "8mdv" RPM on the Zsolt, but I cannot extract the sources from it: $ rpm2cpio dkms-agrsm-2.1.80-8mdv2009.0.i586.rpm | cpio -idv gives me some error: cpio: Malformed number cpio: Malformed number It does look like an srpm, but when I run 'rpm -qpl' on it, it gives a list of the source files.
