In the usual spot:

Changes:
1) Merge in 3c59x update from Andrew Morton. I hope Andrew won't
mind if people who see problems due to these changes at least
CC: him on bug reports? :-)
2) Correct receive buffer
How does this relate to IrDA with SIR speed of 115200 and max turnaround
of 500ms?
The max throughput is about 5000 bytes in 500ms.

This is a small patch to Linux kernel 2.4.1 that fixes a problem with
DVD playback in OMS (Open Media System). With the stock 2.4.1 kernel
OMS will only play up to a certain point on the DVD before it complains
about no more data left on input (basically read() returns 0). This
patch reverts a
Hi Alex!
I'm a little confused here... why are we overrunning? This thing is
running externally at 19200 at best, even if it does all come in as a
packet. I would think the flip buffer would never contain more than a
few characters. Are you running it at a higher rate internally? Does

There is a significative amount of people who use sard's additional block

official free.
The available sard code is not optional, which I believe is a valid reason
for not merging it in.
If so, I can make it

This application uses SO_REUSEADDR in conjunction with INADDR_ANY. What

Really? What version of libc, and on what Linux distro? I thought all
versions of glibc2 had /usr/include/bits/.
If you are using libc4 or libc5, it is not surprising if the BIND
people didn't notice the problem -- they probably didn't try it.

Hi Alan,
I decided to rename swapfs to tmpfs for administration but to call it
virtual memory fs in Documentation.

The attached patch does this an updates the docu.
Greetings

is configured as a router. Updates were made following recommendations in
"Changes". Kernel built OK. Netstat -rn and

Hello!
after experiencing several oops since installing Kernel 2.4.0 I thought
I'd better let someone know there still might be some trouble in the
kernel ... Find my very first question at the very bottom of this mail and
the answer I got from Petr Vandrovec right below ...
I'll try to give

Hi all,
Is anyone working on porting the driver for Lucent Technologies's WaveLAN

The system in question is an API UP1100 based system, running 4 Maxtor
