Has anyone successfully compiled dgnc-1.3 for kernel series 3.x?

Answer 1

Digi NEO driver support is not available for 3.x kernels. However, there is an in-kernel driver module called jsm (developed by IBM) that may work instead. The in-kernel driver will not have Digi tools/utilities though, such as ditty, dpa, etc...

Answer 2

I am having this trouble as well. After three years, you would think they would have fixed it by now.

Answer 3

Original poster returning, for the record:

Have not been able to get the card working yet, until I found out the following:

Looks like there is new life to be breathed into these boards with the newer kernel series with this work. It may be worth a try to use the newer kernel, though initial tests of the earlier kernel patches caused Linux to crash. Hopefully in the 4.x series this has been fixed.
