Compiling module for interface ( Realtek r1000 )

Hi,

I try to compile the r1000_v1.05 driver for RTL-8168 (i suppose it is the
version that  give you problems) and i think i get the same errors than
you discribe :

[root@node2 r1000_v1.05]# make modules

So I make tow modifications in the file r1000_n.c

comment line 136 137 1295 1344 and copy the tow last in place of tow first

Here is the diff :

diff  r1000_n.c r1000_n.c.new
136,137c136,139
< static void r1000_rx_action(struct net_device *netdev);

> //static void r1000_rx_action(struct net_device *netdev);
> static void FASTCALL (r1000_rx_action(struct net_device *netdev));
> //static void r1000_tx_action(struct net_device *netdev);
> static void FASTCALL (r1000_tx_action(struct net_device *netdev));
1295c1297

< static void FASTCALL (r1000_rx_action(struct net_device *netdev));
---
> //static void FASTCALL (r1000_rx_action(struct net_device *netdev));


after the compilation seem to work.

Unfortunatly i can't test the module !
