Brain dump, September 2023 – Dmitry Brant
Summary
Browsing the source code of the driver, it appears to be intended to be compiled for kernel version 2.4.x. So, I tried to find a Linux distro that uses the earliest possible patch version of the 2.4 kernel, and still runs well on my workstation. Here’s my repository on GitHub that has the source code for the driver, with my modifications for getting it to build in CentOS 3.5. In other news, I found and restored an old ThinkPad X131e, which came to me as a Chromebook, i.e. with ChromeOS installed. Anyway, with the latest version of the lightweight Xubuntu installed, this tiny thing works beautifully, and can now have a second life.
