Justin used to say "use my latest driver" when people reported problems. Read lkml. Its great if Justins new driver fixes the problems, but as I told him I thought it was too late for it to be included. Thats my bad, too, because if I had included it early in 2.4.21pre it could be in now. Justin could well have fixed the problems in the current driver instead answering "use my latest driver", couldnt he? - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
