Can't load module

807557Oct 3 2006 — edited Oct 4 2006
I am a newbie trying to configure an on board NIC (Rhine-II) on Solaris 10.
I have downloaded the driver from http://homepage2.nifty.com/mrym3/taiyodo/eng/vfe-2.3.1.tar.gz
and followed the steps in the readme. However, when I try to load the
module, modlod reports it cannot find the file.
bash-3.00# /usr/ccs/bin/make install
/usr/sbin/install -f /kernel/drv -m 755 -u root -g sys i386/vfe
new owner is root
i386/vfe installed as /kernel/drv/vfe
bash-3.00# ./adddrv.sh
exit status = 0
System configuration files modified but vfe driver not loaded or attached.
Driver (vfe) installed.
bash-3.00# /usr/ccs/bin/make uninstall
rm -f /kernel/drv/vfe
bash-3.00# modload obj/vfe
can't load module: No such file or directory
bash-3.00# ls -l
total 578

I have tried deleting the module, and compiling, but I am getting an error that within gem.h the sys/mac.h file cannot be found.

I have thoroughly reveiwed the thread http://forum.sun.com/jive/thread.jspa?forumID=298&threadID=105923 but the problems are not exactly the same.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
