I > think the merge with greg is still a good place to start, although even i'll look again over the -bk magic you told me about and see what it gives. thanks so far to all involved here, i really enjoyed "working" with you. first class support at no charge...it's just incredible. you guys rock, Christian. - -- BOFH excuse #112: The monitor is plugged into the serial port -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.5 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFBkVMN+A7rjkF8z0wRAqu4AKCtxZxE2spjZGgSnxTWzTTB0CWCkACgi2f3 RmHQXbnkcI1OEcLORhP1dmA= =5Dot -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- - 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/
