There's a fair amount of work in testing after backporting. I'd much rather put the effort into IOP ADB for 2.6 instead. Also, I have patches for other drivers that work better than 2.2, so I don't want to encourage use of the old kernel. Other than some recent nubus work, those patches can all be found in Christian's 2.6 kernel. Also, merging would be non-trivial, since the patch was rather large (only partly because 2.6 was so far behind 2.2) -- http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=efcce839360fb3a7b6dedeacaec80f68b0f2d052 -f > > Michael > > > -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
