All,
FYI Sinan Akman has reported that cassini does not compile for x86 any
longer. Message included below.
Does anyone have suggestions as to the best way to resolve this?
Also are there any other lists that this should be forwarded to?
Regards
Richard

Richard, cassini doesn't compile now for x86 after :
http://www.spinics.net/lists/sparclinux/msg07607.html
pci_device_to_OF_node is not defined for all archs so
perhaps you are better of leaving CONFIG_SPARC instead
of having CONFIG_OF.
Feel free to forward this to list (did this ever
appear in lmkl or only sparclinux ?).
If you have another patch on that and cc me I can
compile test for you on x86.

Subject: [PATCH] cassini: Use local-mac-address prom property for Cassini MAC address
Fallback on the local-mac-address prom property if the Cassini device
does not have an address programmed in the VPD ROM. This uses the same
technique as implemented by the sungem driver.
The problem was reported by Frans van Berckel using Debian kernel 2.6.34-7
on Sun Fire V440. udev was assigning a new eth<n> device name on each reboot
because the cassini driver was using a random MAC address.
Fix tested on 2.6.34-7 and 2.6.37 Sun Fire V440. Compile tested against
2.6.36 davem/sparc-2.6.git
