I have read about patches for nforce network drivers to work with the kernel 2.6, but so far they are not present in the nforce-net ebuild. This is really blocking me from using the kernel 2.6 in my environment. Also, I have read somewhere (kerneltrap?) that there is a new reverse-engineered, Open Source driver for nforce NIC. Can you please make it easier for us to test drive the new kernel 2.6? BTW, congrats for the great work. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Run using kernel 2.6 (beta11) 2.Try to emerge nforce-net 3.Bummer. emerge fails Actual Results: emerge does not finish succesfully Expected Results: I should have a shining new ultra-stable kernel module for the NForce NIC for the kernel 2.6
I haven't heard of any patches for nvnet. But if you look into gentoo-dev-sources, it has the forcedeth driver which is working for me here.
