I do not have the time right now to hunt down the bug(?) and cook up a patch, but if you want me to, I`ll do it later today. One more thing, Martin - I compiled a 2.5.8 with TCQ enabled (yep, I`m aware of the fact that this one is _really_ alpha :), and tested it for, oh ... 10 minutes ... the system gave me all sorts of funny responses - segfaults, "inconsistency in ld.so" and so on ... would you like me to collect 'funnies' and send them to you ? If so, just give me a hint. == Morten -- "Livet er ikke for nybegynnere" - sitat fra en klok person. mvh Morten Helgesen UNIX System Administrator & C Developer Nextframe AS admin@nextframe.net / 93445641 http://www.nextframe.net - 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/
