Linux Compiled new device driver, now I'm screwed :)

[tmchow]

I just compiled a new device driver for my Intel Pro Ethernet Card (PCI) and Netgear FA-310TX (tulip).

I followed all the driections at scyld.com where I got the driver.

I dowloaded:
pci-scan.c
pci-scan.h
eepro100.c <-- my device driver
tulip.c <-- my other device driver
kernal_compat.h

I compiled using:
gcc -DMODULE -D__KERNEL__ -o6 -c eepro100.c
then:
gcc -DMODULE -D__KERNEL__ -o6 -c pci-scan.c

I then installed with:
install -m 644 pci-scan.o eepro100.o /lib/modules/`uname-r`/net/

When I either do a &quot;modprobe eepro100&quot; or &quot;insmod eepro100&quot;, I get the following errors:
unresolved symbol acpi_set_pwr_state
unresolved symbol pci_drv_unregister
unresolved symbol pci_drv_register

Anyone have any ideas what to do? i'm complete lost and fairly new to linux.

What kernel are you running? What version, is it stock distribution kernel etc.

Not sure what version, but it's the one that came default with RedHat 6.2 (zoot)

Actually, your solution might be in your post:

Try this:

modprobe pciscan
modprobe eepro100


in that order.

I'll try that and let you kow the results.
