Michael posted to fedora-list on October 1st and seems active. Have you
allowed for the fact he might be away, busy or that you could be in his
spam filters ?

I'm still here and still responding to [email protected]. You may have
gotten caught up in a spam filter. IAC... I don't recall getting any
messages. I have had contact with others on that address and I posted
to LKML back early this year that I was still alive after Andrew Morton
chimed in that I was still around and WittsEnd was still around.

You're not on a black list but CRM-114 may have caught you anyways.

I spoke with Andrew about the Computone driver when we were both
speaking at Linux Lunacy last week. I still intend to maintain it an
I've been working on the 2.6 driver. I've got a spinlock problem that
has me in a bind at the moment with the patches. I jokingly told Andrew
that he would get the patch as soon as I shot this problem and I was not
going to be like some people who sends him patches that don't even
compile. :-)

I thought the PCI stuff was there. I'll look that over and see what
needs to be done. Got some pointers to docs on what I need to update
for that? I was talking to Andrew about the spinlock problems but he
didn't say anything about PCI probing. What's missing?

I wrote it badly. The driver is written old-styled with
pci_find_device function, which Greg KH wants to eliminate from the
kernel. The way how to do it is to rewrite the driver to PCI hotplug
(not as much work). The code needs to be splitted, some for loops
would go away, you will get an event, when the device, you decribe in
pci_tbl, is in the system.

Ah... Found out what happened. They weren't getting dumped in a spam
folder (unless you consider LKML a spam folder :-) ). All of your
messages included LKML in the cc and my procmail scripts obligingly
dumped all of them in my LKML folder. And I'm just a few thousand
messages behind on that one ATM. :-( Sorry about that. On it now.
Guess I need to "fine tune" that procmail receipe.

If you're using gmail to send, probably you can't. It's using various
encoding types, such as HTML, that we filter out here as %99 of that
is spam.
