Hi,

the problem is the new SuSE 7.2 as they follow the new kernel
guidelines how to build a driver. This is currently not supported
by the makefile - sorry!
I will try to create a new makefile within the next days, but I can't
test it, as I don't have the SuSE 7.2
I will send a notification to the list, as soo as I've finished...
