Jeff has some issues with the patch, but said he would check on them. Since Dominik's NIC stoppen working in 2.6.7-mm1, there is some change in that version that broke the driver, but the patch in discussion here is the same (reversed) that I wrote and test with Dominik. -- ----------------------------- Daniele Venzano Web: http://teg.homeunix.org - 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/
