[parisc-linux] adding a second nic to B1000

[geos@canada.com]

Sorry about that 
im kinda new to this if you cant tell ;)
make config allowed me to select what nic drivers i
wanted but this did not compile or load the new driver  

i will have to get the exact errors msg's when i get
back home 

i ran the recompile kernal found here 
http://www.parisc-linux.org/kernel/index.html
using Simple Recipe to Build a Kernel 

this added the source to /usr/src/linux
that source should be the same as my kernal 
after doing that i did this 
http://www.scyld.com/expert/modules.html
needed to get lib6,cvs after a net-install to do this 

the common error after compileing and doing a insmod
3c95x.o
was "this was compiled for 2.4.18 and this version is
for 2.4.19" 
so i copy the 3c95x.c from the 2.4.19 kernel and did it
again now i get an error like this will not function 

ill get better errors msgs tonight

am i doing this all wrong ?
