I was thinking that it may be a matter of compiling the 3c59x.c in order to 
transform it into the 3c59x.o and copy this module into the 
/lib/modules/2.2.18pre21/net directory in order to replace the old module. 
Is this correct? if so, how can I compile the module?
Thanks again for the help!

Regards,
Marcelo
