Input API looks nice. For now, I'll write a patch against pc_keyb.c to add a hook for
my qoder stuff, and a loadable module for the meat of the driver. Then I'll port up to
the input API. The Qoder is strictly ps/2 keyboard, as far as its interface goes, so I
cannot use the input API for now. I

I know about that, but I tried with other cable and the trouble leaves
Hello!
I just mkreiserfsed a new partition (a 50g hardware raid0 array, I know
this is just a testing machine), mounted it, and then unmounted it, and

Authentication will be ugly. Joe mounts a filesystem, and does
not bother to authenticate. He gets world-accessible files.
Then Kevin authenticates as himself, and later as db_adm too.
Along comes Sue, who can authenticate the whole b

Hello all,
I am trying to understand a little bit about the TCP path in the
Linux kernel.
I saw that while we were even copying the user data into kernel space, we
were doing
the partial checksum of the data portion alone (as the TCP header is not yet
filled up) and storing
it in skb->csu

Hi,
I am using the vmstat that came along with the SuSE 7.0 distribution.
I have problem interpretting the data reported by vmstat. The vmstat
document reads that the block information reported is always in terms of
1K blocks. Just to findout the validity of the data reported by vmstat,

I just noticed the changes to reschedule_idle() in the 2.4.5-ac
kernel. I suspect these are the changes made for:

I'm curious if anyone has ran any benchmarks before and after
applying this fix.
The reason I ask is that during the de
The flash mapping driver arch/cris/drivers/axisflashmap.c uses a cached
mapping of the flash chips for bulk reads, but obviously an uncached mapping
for sending commands and reading status when we're actually writing to or
erasing parts of the chip.
However, it fails to flush the dcache for the r
