Hi,

I'm trying to get bering or ucBering running on a motherboard with an
nvidia chipset.  The drivers are partially open source :( and for that
reason aren't and will never be integrated into the kernel.

I'm having difficulty in getting a Bering kernel compile environment
setup and I'm hoping that someone on this list can build this driver for
me.  According to the nvidia license, there is a linux exception which
makes this legal:

"""
2.1.2  Linux Exception.  Notwithstanding the foregoing terms of Section
2.1.1, SOFTWARE designed exclusively for use on the Linux operating
system may be copied and redistributed, provided that the binary files
thereof are not modified in any way (except for unzipping of compressed
files).
"""

If anyone can help me out, the drivers I need are called nvnet.o and
nvnetlib.o and the driver can be downloaded from:

http://download.nvidia.com/XFree86_40/nforce/1.0-0248/NVIDIA_nforce-1.0-0248.tar.gz

I'm trying to use the 2.4.18 kernel so that I can choose between Bering
or ucBering.

Thanks,

Dan
