I'm afraid I'm not familiar with this whole process, but if the intention of the stable review is to only include perfectly correct code, I would suggest delaying until Steffen R=F6cker's patch could be included too. As my patch currently stands, it will add support for only four of the=20 claimed five MacBook models. Unless some other machine reports a product=20 name of MacBook1,1 and a vendor of Apple Inc. and doesn't use an intel=20 graphics card there should be no real issues with the patch as it stands=20 other than claiming to support MacBook1,1. --=20 Evan McClain Aerospace Engineering Graduate Student Senator . evan.mcclain@gatech.edu ..: --k+w/mQv8wyuph6w0 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.15 (GNU/Linux) iHwEABECADwFAkvR4UQ1FIAAAAAAFQAXcGthLWFkZHJlc3NAZ251cGcub3JnZXZh bi5tY2NsYWluQGdhdGVjaC5lZHUACgkQvbxY5xzjycDFSgCeIiBkR5iGj9rOOE3O d8evMB2lNxEAnifa17gIjXlTUE5Af1HodB5tvX4G =BlGT -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --k+w/mQv8wyuph6w0-- -- 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/
