Linux driver for kernel 2.2.X

Installation on Linux:
----------------------
1. Compile the source code :

 ->Copy the source code DXE201 (Ver 1.11a above) to a directory
   and execute
   "gcc -DCARDBUS -DMODULE -D_KERNEL_ -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O6 -c 
   DXE201 -o DXE201.o -I/usr/src/linux/pcmcia-cs-3.0.9/include/
   pcmcia/"
   
   The directory "pcmcia-cs-3.0.9" stands for the card service version you 
   use. Please change it to the version on your system in order to include 
   proper .h file. The final file is DXE201.o

2. Copy driver :

 ->Copy the file "DXE201.o" to "/lib/modules/2.2.14-5.0/pcmcia"
 
   The directory "2.2.14-5.0" stands for the Linux kernel version you use.

3. Edit config:
 ->Add 5 lines to the file "/etc/pcmcia/config"
   
   #
   # Device driver definitions
   #
  
   device "DXE201"                                   (==>Add 1/5)
