[Click] e1000 netpoll

[Beyers Cronje]

Roman,

The driver should run and install fine on 2.4.26, that's the version
I'm running. My guess is the driver does not support your specific
e1000 controller. Use lspci or pciscan to see what controller your
e1000 card has, look in e1000_hw (I think) to see if your controller
is supported.

If not, get the latest CVS version of Click, there's an updated driver
in the drivers directory that should support your newer controller.
