Huh? I'm running -test9-mm2 with the minion stuff as I'm typing this. Or are you talking about the general case if you have a wrapper for a 2.4 kernel? If so, then yes, you'll need to do some programming to get the wrapper to do things the 2.6 way (which is what minion's patch basically does, it changes the NVidia 2.4 wrapper code to the 2.6 schemes). --==_Exmh_-950502366P Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Exmh version 2.5 07/13/2001 iD8DBQE/qp+OcC3lWbTT17ARAlYCAKDIOu6CHunC/4gbJXu7yFV3bVO9CACfebHB ITDGeb646tfG3bRJ5AGTILU= =r4dc -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --==_Exmh_-950502366P-- - 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/
