forcedeth HELP!

[Kirby Bakken <kirbyb@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Please excuse my ignorance...  and
hopefully having done that, point me to the forum, mailing list, or whatever
so I can figure this out (most likely with help....  )  :-)

I'm running a Nvidia Nforce2 MB (Biostar
M7NCG 400).  When I boot with gentoo and a 2.4 kernel, eth0 works
fine.  When I boot with a 2.6.7 kernel, eth0 does not work.  When
booted with the 2.6.7 kernel,  an 'lsmod' shows forcedeth with a size
of 12160, and a 'used by' of '0' (I'm so dumb, I'm not even sure if that
means its just not used by anybody else, OR if the kernel isn't even using
it, even though its loaded).

A look at /proc/net/dev is pretty much
0's, except for a 'drop' of 4 bytes.... 

I've read that I can turn on 'generous'
debug output by changing the #if 0 in forcedeth.c from to a '1'...  But
how then do I compile that?  A 'make forcedeth.o' produces a ton of
errors....  And given that I CAN get that to compile,  where
does the debug output show up.

Thanks in advance  :-)
