But the field was removed from the kernel structure
If you are going to be building the very latest drivers against the very
latest kernels, shouldn't you be asking these questions either on lkml or
on opensuse-kernel?
Actually, since the problem is that the tg3 driver hasn't been ported to
the latest kernel, you should probably be talking to Broadcom

Madness takes its toll
Anders,
I lied, using make and KVER it failed, but when actually logged into the
2.6.22.9-0.4 it worked.. guessing I may have forgotten -default when building
using kver.
Sorry about that..
Also, the kernel I was logged into wasn't vanilla, it was actually from head
(I decided to install from head to show someone how to do it and decided to
just keep it).
