Hello,
After upgrading from 2.6.18.3 to 2.6.19.2 on an x86_64 machine I noticed
that the EHCI USB host is unable to work properly after a kexec invocation.
This makes it impossible to mount the rootfs in the configuration I'm using.
According to the prints, the irq changes from 23 to 10.

Hi!
SLIM implements dynamic process labels, so when a process
is demoted, we must be able to revoke write access to some
resources to which it has previously valid handles.
For example, if a shell reads an untrusted file, the
shell is demoted, and write access to more trusted files
revoked.
Hi!
Now question. Should we,or should we not return error code from resume
callback?
Where a two possible ways:
a) Comment in document section is out of date and we have to properly handle
and return error code if something goes wrong.
This is right.
b) Comment in document section is

This means we have a need for the page fault handler patch you wrote

Hi,
I'm investigating an unwanted behaviour of our firewire devices in
connection with the ieee1394 kernel module.
The problem is caused by a non standard-conform behaviour of our

Hi,
does someone know how to forward a kernel command line option to configure the
AMD Geode GX1 framebuffer?
I tried with video=gx1fb:[EMAIL PROTECTED] but it does not work. On another
machine with an SIS framebuffer the line video=sisfb:[EMAIL PROTECTED] works
as expected.
Any ideas?
