Brinckmeyer) o Bridge should be silent if disabled (Tomasz Motylewski) o Another bad ne2k clone added (Jari Malinen) o Wavelan updated (Jean Tourrilhes) o InitIO updates (Bas) o InitIO A100 support (Initio/Bas) o Added Tripace TC-2550 driver (Tripace) (anyone with a card care to port it to 2.2) 2.0.37 will NOT build with binutils 2.7. You need a newer binutils. If you are building on Red Hat 4, or other older distributions you will run into problems.
