This driver will be new-in-2.6.17. Usually after a feature is first merged in mainline there will be a string of fairly significant updates from the original development team and from others as things get sorted out. These patches are almost always good and they're things which we want to get into the next release, so I tend to ignore the merging rules in this case, particularly around the -rc1-rc2 timeframe when we have lots of testing/eyeballing time to go. Plus these patches provide things which were supposed to be in the initial merge, only nobody told us.. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.
