I have a Surecom Network Apdapter (EP-427X). There are some Linux Files on the driver disk but the readme file says the following:
SURECOM EP-427X 10/100M PCMCIA Adapter LINUX DRIVER INSTALL Note: this driver for linux 2.0.30
1. copy driver to /ep427x
# mcopy a:/* /ep427x
2. download pcmcia-cs-3.0.x.tar.gz from hyper.stanford.edu
in the /pub/pcmcia directory
readme PCMCIA-HOWTO file & install it
3. add the following lines into /etc/pcmcia/config
card "SURECOM EP-427X 100/10M PCMCIA Adapter"
version "PCMCIA", "100BASE"
bind "pcnet_cs"
4.# cd /ep427x # chmod +x gen1 gen2
5.# gen1 # gen2
6.# reboot ------------- hyper.stanford.edu no longer publishes the pcmcia package and the kernel version iŽd like to use is 2.2.14 Do I just have to add the definitions to a newer kernel version or do i have to use some of the "patches" that might be included with the driver disk? are pcnet_cs.c and 8390.c just standard driver source? there is some more files included with the driver disk: Config: --------- # # config.sample 1.87 1999/02/16 01:33:35 (David Hinds) # # config.opts is now included at the very end
# # Device driver definitions # device "3c589_cs" class "network" module "3c589_cs" [...] --------- gen1: ------ gcc -DMODULE -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux -I/usr/src/pcmcia-cs-3.0.9/include -c -O6 pcnet_cs.c cp pcnet_cs.o /lib/modules/2.0.30/pcmcia/pcnet_cs.o ------ gen2: ------ gcc -DMODULE -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux -I/usr/src/linux/drivers/net -c -O6 8390.c cp 8390.o /lib/modules/2.0.30/net/8390.o ------
