[wplug] Netgear driver

[mdanish at andrew.cmu.edu]

In addition, a driver for the 2.2 kernels is included on the floppy disk that
came with the card, in the LINUX/ directory.  Copy the .c file and the
Makefile, and install your current kernel's sources somewhere (like 
/usr/src/linux).  Then make sure the following option is either in the
CFLAGS variable or on the gcc command line: -I/usr/src/linux/include
(this assumes you installed the sources in /usr/src/linux/, adjust as necessary)

Then run make, and you've got yourself a .o file you can insmod or you can
put it under /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/net and run depmod -a and then you
can modprobe it as well.
