You also don't have a clue what replying below is all about nor do you respond to anything regarding quotes. How many times haven't we seen stupid quotes like this : > blah blah long long line .......................... end of last line > here is the second line that's quoted end of second line......... > and here starts the third one. If you haven't - lucky you. But don't try to push your reply-above-and-don't-give-a-piss-about-others approach. This list replies below and uses manually wrapped lines. If you want to create your own linux kernel list with other rules - be free to do so, but if you want to continue talking on this one, follow the rules on it, don't try to push your own. // Stefan - 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/
