[leaf-user] Extra kernel modules for WISP?

[dan]

Hi.

My box has a 3Com EtherLink III 3c509 ISA network card which does not seem to be supported by a stock WISPDist install.

Is there a place to get extra modules from that are compatible with WISPDist?

Seeing that WISP is based on Bering, i grabbed the 3c509 module for Bering from http://leaf.sourceforge.net/devel/jnilo/bering/latest/modules/drivers/net/ , copied it to the installed system, edited /etc/modules and saved the configuration. The card is detected OK on bootup, but the kernel crashes shortly after bootup is complete (sometimes 5 seconds after bootup, sometimes 1 minute).

The WISP install was perfectly stable before i added this driver, and the box is perfectly stable with the 3c509 up and running under a stock 2.4.19 kernel under a redhat 6.2 install.

Are the latest bering modules incompatible with WISPDist?

TIA,
dan.
