Dan,

System kernel version is 2.4.21, so I used Marvell reference driver.
I guess I can't used upstream 2.6 kernel driver, does it provide source which we can build to module of kernel 2.4.
Thanks you very much!

Scott

Are you using the Marvell reference driver, or the upstream 2.6 kernel
driver?
