ibdriver and the 2.6.35-23-generic-pae kernel
 
I need to get my iBurst Kyocera USB pppoe dongle working.

Unfortunately the 2.6.31 kernel removed deprecated network API calls which broke th ibdriver.

However, I found a patch here: http://jkroon.blogs.uls.co.za/it/net...-linux-drivers

Although this fixes a lot of the issues, I still get the following errors when I try to 'make' the ibdriver:

Can anyone give me assistance on how to resolve these?

Alternatively, the pppoe package in Ubuntu 10.10 describes itself as drivers for pppoe devices, but I am unable to see how to get it to see my modem.
