I have 3 questions regarding this issue: 1. Can you explain the problem a little bit more in detail? 2. Is there a dedicated patch solving this issue? (I don't want to apply the complete -ac patch ) 3. Will this patch be in 2.4.22? Thx & regards, ron PS: Sorry if this mail is not part of the origin thread. I'm not on the list and read about the problem in a mailing list archive. - 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/
