I expect it'll be rather hard for me to test the changes then, as my IBM ThinkPad T43 suffers from kernel IDE/SATA/PATA issues, and running every new kernel was a big pain so far (it currently runs 2.6.16.8) :( -- Sergei. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
