[vortex] Regarding compliation of 3C59x in linux-2.5

[Anup Pemmaiah]

Tee problem that the module gets installed and never comes up is because of a 
setting in my new kernel. I had enabled CONFIG_PACKET but had not enabled 
CONFIG_FILTER. After I recompiled the kernel with CONFIG_FILTER evrything 
worked on fine. I really appreciate your help.


Thank you,

Anup
