So there's something in -mm which fixes your kernel? It's usually the other way around ;) And it sounds like something which has been in -mm for a long time, so it might not be a patch which I was planning on sending upstream. Can you think of a way in which we can identify which patch does the good deed? - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
