devices.txt inconsistency
This has not been fixed for at least a year that i can remember - in Documentation/devices.txt, it says /dev/js* should be char-major-15*, but in Documentation/joystick.txt it says it should be char-major-13. I'm assuming joystick.txt is the correct one, and devices.txt should be updated to reflect this.. before 2.4.0 would be nice. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
NFS Locking problems
Is there a problem with NFS locking in 2.4.0-test12 and/or 2.2.18? I'm using nfs-utils 0.2.1 and NFS v2, connected to a NFS v2 server running Linux 2.2.18. Whenever mutt tried to place a lock on a file on an NFS share, I get the following messages in syslog (I get the same message for each time mutt tried to lock a file): Dec 19 20:00:39 darth rpc.statd[558]: gethostbyname error for darth.ns Dec 19 20:00:39 darth rpc.statd[558]: STAT_FAIL to darth.ns for SM_MON of 192.168.1.1 Dec 19 15:00:39 darth kernel: lockd: cannot monitor 192.168.1.1 darth.ns is the system I have NFS mounted on, and 192.168.1.1 is the NFS server. On a side note, I have no idea why rpc.statd is reporting 20:00 as the time and kernel is reporting 15:00, but the messages are right after another in the order you see. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/

Re: scd/ide-scsi reporting size incorrectly
Hm. I noticed the size reported is only the size of the last session, not the total of all the sessions. On Sun, Nov 05, 2000 at 03:17:25PM -0500, Ari Pollak wrote: > Hey.

Hardware APM suspend
Question - is hardware APM suspend supported in any current available kernel/apmd? I ask this because when I press the power button on my computer, which is supposed to do a hardware suspend (according to my BIOS) and I'm in X, the screen basically turns to garbage and I can't do anything except reset/poweroff my computer. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
USB behavior screwy for uhci.o in test9-pre5
Sometime between test9-pre3 and test9-pre5, the alternative UHCI driver (uhci.o) got screwed up - with my MS Natural Keyboard Pro in USB mode & using the keybdev + hid + uhci driver, pressing one of caps/num/scroll lock turns the appropriate light on, but then when pressing the same caps/num/scroll lock button again, the light stays on and I get the following error message: kernel: hid.c: usb_submit_urb(out) failed Using the usb-uhci.o driver instead of uhci.o corrects the problem, but I can't use usb-uhci.o properly on a regular basis because my ibm usb webcam does not work properly with it. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/

Re: 2.4.0-test8-pre1 is quite bad
Hrm. very weird. I guess it doesn't do it anymore (couldn't tell you if it did it on test8-pre1 w/o vmpatch, i had it disabled) - only when you abort it in the middle.

Re: 2.4.0-test8-pre1 is quite bad
Well, the vmpatch still didn't fix the problem I've been having for many moons (I believe since late 2.3.99) - When running updatedb from the slocate distribution, I lose at least 90 MB of memory by the time it's finished, and it takes about a day for the memory to become usable again - this is not cached/buffered mem, it just disappears off the face of my computer.
