Maybe it would be an idea to dump the eeprom from the driver with the 2.4.12.0

Hmm, I don't think that the firmware somehow changes the eeprom.
I think you misunderstood me. The driver fails to load when using newer
firmware with a "can not read eeprom" error. So I have the idea to add a couple
of printk's printing all the important bits from the eeprom using the 2.4.12.0
firmware, then modify the driver to hardcode these bits from the eeprom in to
the driver and then try newer firmware with the driver with the hardcoded bits
in. This way I want to see if the reading of the eeprom is the only problem, or
if there are other problems too when using newer firmware. Does this sound like
a plan or is it a waste of time?

Hans
