New 310.32 driver now available. Does not require patching for latest kernels 3.7.x and up.

310.32 still doesn't find the new location of version.h and complains about not configured kernel sources with 3.7. You still need to make the workaround link. So it's no improvement over 310.19.

Ooops, you're probably right - I forgot to remove the symlink I have for the 3.7.3 kernel :-( . But at least there is a new driver :-) .

Would someone please supply the "workaround" symlink and where it should be placed?

See https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=795837 You may need to adapt the directory to the kernel version , you are running. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Thanks, Tom

This is courtesy of my old pal Patrick "Stings Like a Bee" Shanahan: as root issue in a terminal the command: cd /lib/modules/3.7.X-desktop/build/include [ENTER] then ln -s generated/uapi/linux [ENTER] go to init 3 and install the driver in the normal way.
