Which patches are the usefull ones over there? I haven't looked much there, just at string and iplimit, and iplimit seems interesting. Which ones do you use, and would you recommend? Most of that stuff doesn't change much, and shouldn't be that hard to make a patch of that patches into the mdk-kernel. I'd be willing to help wth that. -- Marcel Pol Linux 2.4.20-0.4mdk.ringworld.1, up 7 days, 15:07 Registered User #163523
