That again removes a lot of code. [Greg, no reason not to apply the previous patch - the next one will just remove some more code.] Matt, you asked for a diff -b. But can't you make that yourself? (Apply the patch to some tree, and say diff -r -u -b or so.) But if you are short on disk space, I'll send one. Matt, concerning the s/10/3/ - if that really worries you I'll do s/3/10/ again. [Personally I think that anybody who writes a driver and lets it retry ten times is a bad programmer. Retrying is almost always the wrong thing to do. In this particular case it also happened to crash the kernel. But of course the USB code will improve, and some day it will no longer crash the kernel. That day I will still think that retrying ten times is a bug.] Andries _______________________________________________________________ Don't miss the 2002 Sprint PCS Application Developer's Conference August 25-28 in Las Vegas -- http://devcon.sprintpcs.com/adp/index.cfm _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, use the last form field at: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-usb-devel
