Hi,
I guess the w83793 driver had not made the 2.6.18.4 kernel that RHEL5 is based off.Anyway, luckily you don't need to build a whole kernel for one driver module - you can build the driver out of tree against the el5 kernel.Even better, I've backported the module for you from the latest upstream kernel (2.6.30.5) as a kABI tracking kmod package and put it in the elrepo-testing repository here (kmod-w83793):
Thanks a lot!!!!
http://elrepo.org http://elrepo.org/linux/testing/el5/As you have the hardware, I'd appreciate if you would test the driver and report back how it works, either here or on the elrepo mailing lists or bug tracker.
Sure! I will let you know asap :) Thanks! Adrian
