Bug 6733 – e100-2.1.6 (New Package)

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Kris Verbeeck 2002-08-19 14:25:51 UTC]

Attached is an ebuild file (and related files) for an alternative Intel PRO/100
ethernet adapter driver.  The driver source is provided by Intel and replaces
the eepro100 driver that is part of the Linux kernel.  I made this ebuild
because the eepro100 driver block after some time.  This e100 driver seems to
work alright.

The attached archive contains a net-misc/e100/ directory with all the necessary
files to emerge this driver on a Gentoo 1.2 system.

ps: It would also be nice if this driver could be included in the kernel on
installation ISO.  That way I don't have to resort to a stage3 install on my laptop.

ps: This is my first ebuild file, so I hope its correct.
