When the patch was here (http://www.fi.muni.cz/~xslaby/lnx/lnx-pci_find-2.6.13-r3g4_3.patch -- it'll be certainly sliced into many pieces; of course I didn't cc you :( ), they told me, that the better way is to let it be, because it signify the driver as old api based, if there are some warnings, so I want people to stop using the old functions. So you want me to continue producing the patches, that removes it? regards, jiri - 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/
