EciAadsl: EciAdsl and 2.6.x kernels ()

EciAdsl driver is compatible with 2.6 kernels since version 0.9.
All 2.6 kernels between 2.6.0 and 2.6.6 have to be patched (look at link below).

Update on 2004-06-23: 2.6.7 and 2.6.8.1 kernels are not stable with EciAdsl.
Kernel 2.6.9-rc1 seems stable.

Feel free to report us any stability problem with 2.6 kernels.
Thanks.

Patch for 2.6 kernels (≥ 2.6.0 and ≤ 2.6.6)

Re: EciAdsl and 2.6.x kernels
Posted by NetSurfer,
I DIDN'T HAVE TO USE THE PATCH NOR MODIFY THE KERNEL:
I use SuSE 9.1 with kernel 2.6.4-52 and my modem is a D-link DSL200 (but I Know it works also with ericsson hm 120 dp, maybe with other too...)
I edited 2 strings in startmodem (change /proc/bus/usb/devices in /proc/bus/usb/devices_please-use-sysfs-instead) because in SuSE there is not the voice "devices" (they renamed it devices_please-use-sysfs-instead)

Yesterday I was able to connect and surf the Net.... but today not Konkeror nor Mozilla browses to the web (but the modem is connected) Can somebody help me?
