Hi Linus & Alexander
It seems that we were all wrong in assuming that ext2 was fixed
wrt. filesystem corruption. test10pre3 once again has the potential
to eat files (not sure about earlier versions).
I finally managed to capture an oops (by hand), so bear with me that
I didn't typo anywhere.
Also sprach Mark Montague:
}
} dn[i], i++ evaluates to i, but str[i] = dn[i], i++ sets str[i] to
} dn[i] first, then increments i returning its previous value, which is
} discarded. Which was probably specified this way so
}
} for(i=1,j=2; something; something else)
}
} works as expected, rathe
I complained few days ago that 'agpgart.o' module from 2.2.18pre
is causing a kernel oops. The problem turned out to be an apparent
assumption that PCI memory <-> memory mapping is an identity and
this is not always the case.
Here is a patch applicable to all 2.2.18pre kernels with agpgart
suppo

Where in the standard does it say this? It's probably done most of the
time in this fashion for c

I'm not saying this because the "something else" doesn't look completly idiotic

Hi!
No chance getting this to work on 2.2 now, try 2.4.0, it should work.
I hope to fix 2.2 later ...

1. Does Linux use call gates (as specified in the Intel SDK vol.3) when a
user process makes a system call? From what I understand, call-gates let a
ring-3 process execute ring-0 code, which sounds exactly like a system call.
I've found all of the actual system call functions (sys_ni etc.) in sys

Sure, I can make it slip revs that the elevator can not correct.
Hop platters, if we know where they begin/end.
I can do write_verify_read that can never be done in a

Does somebody know if there are somewhere for some linux kernel
some patches that implement eigrp?
I know it's a proprietary Cisco protocol, but I don't know the
licensing terms, so I'm asking if someone here know something
about.

Thanks for the suggestion. I tried it and you're right: it booted normally and
then gave me an oops. For now, I've managed to get my network card "sort of"
working with 2.3.51, and I'm going to try to resolve the remaining problems with
that. Also, now that I know it's a umsdos problem and n
