It may sound confusing at first, but the truth is that kernel code belongs to the kernel tree. Drivers should have been merged into the main Linux tree many months earlier (if not years) but it wasn't as easy as it sounds, thus the delay. > Or is it a 2.4 module being compiled for a 2.6 kernel?

This sure would need to be documented. I can't remember similar cases being reported in the past. Thanks. -- Jean "Khali" Delvare http://khali.linux-fr.org/
