Hi!
"mirror" works fine for me even on kernel 2.4.3 on my Pismo. Weird. This
kernel is from Ben's rsync and it contains the pismo sleep code as well.
rsync -avz --delete penguinppc.org::linux-2.4-benh linux-2.4-benh
I got scared because I am going to GUADEC (a GNOME conference in
Denmark) this weekend and it would have sucked badly if it didnt work,
but so far it looks good :o)
I originally had just a binary of "mirror" which worked, but I compiled
the one which was attached to Jason's mail and it worked as well.
Best wishes,
Tuomas
