Ipheth-dkms is broken on 11.04, is it possible to fix?

Asked by David Hill

Hi guys,

    Here is a patch to fix ipheth.c for kernel 2.6.38 ... iphteth-dkms is broken for some reasons. The iPhone is seen by the network-manager, iphone sees the PCs, I can see package being exchanged on the network interface but no IPs is ever attributed to the interface. This solves the issue for my kernel (2.6.38) but could break for earlier kernels... maybe you need to adapt my patch so it's only applied on kernel 2.6.37 and forward.

Thanks,
