Heh, people ask me about this every few months or so, so you are not alone. Unfortunately, I really like the cascade affect, it shows that the patches do have to be applied in consecutive order for them to work properly (which some people seem to forget and then get mad at me when they try to cherry-pick intermediate patches and apply them to older kernels for odd reasons...) If I wanted to respond in an egotistical way, I could just tell you to use an email client that can handle the cascade affect properly, like mine does :) thanks, greg k-h - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
