Hello,

I have on my laptop a kernel based on CVS from May 2009, i.e. 8-CURRENT
at this time. 

I now need support for Atheros AR813x/AR815x PCIe
Ethernet, the kmod if_alc.ko. That's why I did:

# cd /usr/src/sys/dev
# cvs update -d -r RELENG_8_0_0_RELEASE alc

and have now:

# ls -l alc
total 142
drwxr-xr-x  2 root  wheel     512 21 oct 15:30 CVS
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  103832 21 oct 15:30 if_alc.c
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel   29084 21 oct 15:30 if_alcreg.h
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel    8119 21 oct 15:30 if_alcvar.h

but a 

# cd /usr/src
# make buildkernel KERNCONF=GENERIC

does not build the module if_alc.ko

What I'm missing? Or what is the correct way to get this module for my
kernel level?

Thanks

	matthias
