I didn't send them to Jeff last time because: sundance-remove-txstartthresh-and-rxearlythresh.patch There's no description of what this patent issue is. sundance-fix-tx-pause-bug-reset_tx-intr_handler.patch There's no description of the bug which got fixed, nor how this patch fixes it. sundance-change-phy-address-search-from-phy=1-to-phy=0.patch There's a (small) possibility that this will break on hardware which _doesn't_ have a phy at address 0. sundance-correct-initial-and-close-hardware-step.patch There's no real description of the bug which is being fixed, nor of how this patch fixes it. sundance-solve-host-error-problem-in-low-performance-embedded.patch No description of what the "host error problem" is, nor of what causes it, nor of how this patch fixes it. So generally these patches are a bit worrying, and it is hard to gauge what their risk factor is. - 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
