Re: [Netnice-kernels] Linux Kernel

[kartikey b. <kar...@ho...>]

hello,

may be here comes the answer to all your
questions. this is the patch that i worked
on and where everything is in place. it
compiles neatly without any modifications.
just apply it against fresh 2.6.7 tree.
and from make menuconfig select
drivers->networking options->Netnice for Linux.


regards
