Comment 57 for bug 160413

When I apply the patch to the r8169.c of my 2.6.22 source tree revision (patch warns me about a fuzz but it seems to work), I can compile the module and it loads without any problem... but when I shutdown, I cannot wake my machine through the magic packet method (which always works when I shutdown from XP).

If I try to compile the r8169.c from git (head) after apply your patch (no warning), I have an error when compiling the module :

py@PC-FIXE2:/usr/src/linux-source-2.6.22$ sudo make modules
  CHK include/linux/version.h
  CHK include/linux/utsrelease.h
  CALL scripts/checksyscalls.sh
  CC [M] drivers/net/r8169.o
drivers/net/r8169.c:392: erreur: field «napi" has incomplete type

make[2]: *** [drivers/net/r8169.o] Erreur 1
make[1]: *** [drivers/net] Erreur 2
make: *** [drivers] Erreur 2

Obviously the newer version of the driver does not fit older kernel API (my guess since I do not pretend to understand much about kernel programming).
