not yet supported USB-Ethernet adapter

Hi all,
at first, I don't know if this is the right place for this, if not please
redirect me.

I bought an USB-Ethernet-Adapter and found it was not supported by linux
from the vendor. So I played a little with lsusb and found it used a
MCS7830 chip from MosChip semiconductor (moschip.com). On their homepage I
found a driver but it only was a precompiled Fedora4 module.
So I wrote them an email and they sent me the whole code. Unfortunately it
doesn't compile on my machine with a 2.6.16 kernel, but in does on a
friend's one who uses 2.6.12, so I assume something has changed in the
kernel interface (I get errors with sk_buff_head not containing "list").
I have no idea of how to correct this but maybe someone else can. I attached
the sourcecode wich is licensed under the GPL.
