Comment 16 for bug 880316

I just added this driver to ubuntu 13.04. The current version does not compile as it still uses the __dev* macros for hotplug devices which have now been removed from the kernel. (cleanup of driver initialisation code to save memory is no longer done)

Kernel 3.8.0-26-generic -

I modified jme.c from the downloaded tarball:

- remove '__devinit' from declaration of jme_init_one() at about line 3444
- remove function 'jme_remove_one' in its entirety at about line 3732
- remove '.remove = __devexit_p(jme_init_one)' from 'jme_driver' structure at about line 3905

A better way to do the above changes is to add a conditional on the kernel version and define the '__dev*' macros as blank.

Issuing 'make' and 'make install' now works and the ethernet interface is active and functional after a reboot.

A complete script to do this(note that the download is commented out as I have now modified the driver and do not want to overwrite the changes:
