I fixed a bunch of stuff (see ChangeLog) and made a 2.6.19 or later
version see:
	http://developer.osdl.org/shemminger/prototypes/sk98lin-8.41.tar.gz

It is too noisy in the console log, because it shows how many times
the driver dope slaps itself senseless...  Basically every 250ms when
it is idle it resets, sorry it's the kind of code you right to "make it work"
and ship it which is why vendor drivers suck.
