Thanks. When using "make oldconfig", every time I have to press
enter to continue for:
BT848 Video For Linux (CONFIG_VIDEO_BT848) [N/m/?] (NEW)
This is the case for the last couple of pre releases I tested (currently using
pre8 & compiling pre9). It looks like the option is not saved in the
.config file.
Otherwise the compilation with my .config works without human intervention.

I will reserve some CPU cycles.
Have fun,

what do you think about including the request_firmware() backport from
Manuel Estrada Sainz?

I already ported drivers/bluetooth/bfusb.c to use the request_firmware()
interface and I will port drivers/bluetooth/bt3c_cs.c after this patch
gets merged.

Marcelo, thanks for picking up the pace, but please slow down a tad,
people still need to test these things...

I think this is a 2.4.23-pre patch.
Please resend me once 2.4.22 is out.

Ok those would be easier to isolate problems with anyway.

Sounds fine, thanks.

I know. I just forgot to add network driver fixes and b44 driver from
jgarziks tree. He sent me those _before_ I released -pre9. Thats why
-pre10 so soon.
I think a one week average for pre releases is good.

In order to isolate problems, the fewer patches there are between releases,
the easier it will be to find out what can be the cause of the problem
(if any, the last couple of pre releases are working perfectly for me,
if CONFIG_VIDEO_BT848 would be saved in .config, I can build them
without human intervention, so the number of releases is no problem for
me. When the compile succeeds, the next time I boot my machine I will have
the latest kernel running, currently 2.4.22-pre9).

Hi,
Is there any chance that seq_file helpers from 2.5 are
included in 2.4.22 ? I though it was planned but it is
still not included.
The patch is here :

2.4.23-pre thing. If you want them in, please send me a patch once 2.4.22
is out.

You still haven't sent a patch to fix it 8)

well, I sent a "fix" which isn't a fix. We all agree, hch, viro etc.
Al: You said you have a fix which rips out the offending totally wrong code?

Absent any discovery of one of those "oh my God" errors I think that's
great. Gives people time to shake things out.
