Again, I had no previous experience with netBSD. Why are'nt
there any makefile associated with the files in the sys/dev/marvell
directory which I got from
tftp://ftp.NetBSD.org/pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-current/ ? Is this
how netBSD archive its source codes ? Perhaps I am missing
something.
I saw the file if_gfe.c was updated last Aug 5 . Do you
know what was changed ? Do you mind sending me your
version of source codes (including makefiles) that you claimed it
worked for nearly three years ?
Any assistance is highly appreciated.
Respectfully,
