Hi,

        I'm writing a kernel-module which should be notified whenever my
ethernetcard receives a frame (and it should get the frame also).
I don't want to hack a call to my module into some ethernet-card driver.
Isn't there a more generic way for me to register my module as
the receiver for ethernetframes. (And at the same time to unregister the
normal protocolstack in the linux kernel).

Well Dirk,

how often do you want to ask this question?? Isn't it enough to post
it once? Wait until somebody answers it. It is very annoying reading
the same post over and over again.

Like I already said in one of the previous one. The newsserver of our
university was giving me a serious headache. It always told me that my
post failed. Now it seems like they did got through.Our newsserver seems
to be using some kind of caching software that doesn't seem to work the
way it should. I appologized already for the inconvienience (see my
posts coming via the dejanews-system) and I'm sorry once more.
