Hello,

I am trying to compile the rtl8139 driver for my SMC
10/100 NIC. I have turned on all 10/100 devices (i.e. 3Com
cards -n- such); however, I can not get the rtl driver to show
up as an option in my menuconfig. What to I need to do to
compile this driver as a module. Am I missing something
else perhaps not in Network Devices. I do see the rtl8139.c file in my drivers/net source tree.

Thanks in advance.

Have you turned on:
[EISA, VLB, PCI and on board controllers] in
[Ethernet (10 or 100Mbit) --->] which is in
[Network device support --->] ???

Just enable 'Prompt for development and/or incomplete code/drivers' in 'Code maturity level options', the first item in the setup menu...

Bye for now,
Ward.
