Case closed? I admit that although *my* configuration works now, somebody else who understands the code better (Yu Luming and Len Brown, probably) get to decide if it's an "obvious" fix or something that introduces other issues. I know back around 2.5.68, there was a 2-line change to the Cardbus support that broke my Xircom card, but backing it out was technically wrong as well - the proper fix involved a complete re-write of the Yenta stuff. --==_Exmh_1405945126P Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Exmh version 2.5 07/13/2001 iD8DBQE/+ritcC3lWbTT17ARAk2mAKCvC0o73VbDaByQ3kS5xOKNMLn7+ACg0r7+ HA2h/0c3jgfBdVLEuQYFC00= =743F -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --==_Exmh_1405945126P-- - 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/
