The header netdevice.h has changed a lot in 2.4; most of your errors
will refer to the struct dev, defined in netdevice.h, and non-existing
members, like tbusy.
At the times of linux-2.4-test8 or so, D. Becker told me he'll port his
driver to the new kernel once a stable version is out. He might already be
working on it, till then you can only try to fix it yourself or wait.
