Does anyone have the D-Link DFE-690TXD Carbus ethernet card working in 
YDL 2.3?
When I insert the card, it recognizes the maker, the model of the card 
and then says:
/etc/hotplug.pci.agent: ...no modules for PCI slot 06:00

So I looked for the driver.  And I found this page:

http://support.dlink.com/faq/view.asp?prod_id=1226&question=DFE-690TXD

Which says that I need to:

Copy the source code dfe690.c (ver 1.11a above) to a directory and 
execute gcc -DCARDBUS -DMODULE -D_KERNEL_ -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O6 
-c dfe690.c -o dfe690_cb.o 
-I/usr/src/linux/pcmcia-cs-3.0.9/include/pcmcia/

And so I try it, and although it there are a lot of errors, it doesn't 
exit with an error that it failed.  But it never results in an actual 
module (that I can find, anyway) dfe690_cb.o

Any thoughts on how to make this card work?

Thanks,

Jeff
