MCP51 Ethernet Controller  
Hi.

I have an amd64 with a lot of fairly useless chipsets. QNX doesn't know about my inbuilt ethernet device. In the 
beginning Linux didn't knwo about it either.

nVidia Corporation
MCP51 Ethernet Controller

OEM vendor: Giga-byte Technology
OEM Product: Unknown (0xe000)

if I attempt to hack in code from the Linux driver, if at all possible, do I voilate anything in regards to:
The New QNX Hybrid Software Model: Combining open source and proprietary benefits for embedded systems

If I get something that compiles but doesn't work, can I share with others and get people to help finish it...? How..? 
Can I/someone branch the SVN repository..?

How adaptable is the Linux driver code to be kludged into anything else, how different are the driver models between 
Linux and QNX...?  

I can't access the network, therefore I will have to svn update from Linux, burn a CD, rebuild under QNX as proc is 
broken under Linux at this stage.
