Hi Dan,<br>
Yes, an elrepo kABI-tracking kmod package of your driver would be ideal <br>
as it will survive kernel updates seamlessly meaning you won't need to <br>
recompile it for every kernel update.<br>
Thanks for providing the above information. We (Alan actually) already <br>
packages a number of these realtek drivers, but so far not yours. I see <br>
the driver source code for your driver on the realtek website so it <br>
should be simple enough to do. I'm assuming Alan will pick this up on <br>
his return as he's done the rest of the realtek drivers (I think he's <br>
been away for a couple days).<br>
<br>
I trust you'll be able to test the driver package for us?<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Phil<br>
