I just spoke with Jason Raichart at Actiontec.  He has been busy
working on our problem.  He told me that he has updated the
Actiontec GPL source release "tar" file to include the needed
versions of the GPL source files which should solve all of the
problems I have encountered so far with rebuilding the Actiontec
Dual PC uClinux kernel.

He has notified the Actiontec "Web guys" that a new "tar" file
will need to be posted on the Web site.  At this point he says
that he is waiting for final approval from his manager.

Jason expects to have the new source code available on the
Actiontec Web site *tomorrow*.  He promised to send a post to
this list when the new GPL source release is ready.

Thank you Jason...and Actiontec!!

Best regards,

Bruce
