QNX6.3.2 Driver on 6.2.1  
Hi,

Can a newer network driver be used in a previous version of QNX.  Our client has hardware with the Intel® 82573 PCIe® 
network controller but only QNX6.2.1.  I see that this is supported from 6.3.0 onwards.

Can this driver be used in 6.2.1?

I have a similar question regarding the Q965 chipset, can the 6.4.1 driver be used in 6.2.1?

Kind regards,
Theuns

Dag se Theuns,

Unfortunately the io-net interface changed between 6.2 and 6.3, so the
driver are incompatible. It would require a back-port to get these drivers
working under 6.2.1.
