There is a kernel 6.3 patch for an earlier driver version available, and this can be modified for the latest driver version:\u00a0\u00a0 https:\/\/gist.github.com\/joanbm\/d10e9cbbbb8e245b6e7e27b2db338faf<\/a><\/p>\n

I have done this, and the driver now compiles successfully, and appears to load\/run OK….<\/p>\n
