Ok, I was misinterpreting "mainline" as "not stable", thanks for correcting me. > As far as the patch goes, I don't mind adding it, though it > would be nice if you > or someone else can figure out why it's needed in certain > configurations and > not in others. Do you think the patch should go in the book? I presented it to perhaps interest others and start a discussion, so I could learn what was happening. Should we not hear from other people if it is just one of my systems? Further: I am sure you and others in this (B)LFS entourage can easily transform the patch in sed, if needed to go in the book. I will try later today to find differences in the five systems where I installed 3.4.0, but for my level of knowledge, it was alread difficult and great to have solved the mistery I faced. > If you see a package upgrade committed > by me in svn, you can be > assured that it built for me at least. I do not understand. Have you already commited? I only saw it as "assigned", and my intention was just to warn about the problem I faced and better understand it. > I obviously > can't test every combination > of hardware and/or kernel configs (my kernel is as minimal > as possibly for my > needs). > > Regards, > > Matt. I know that, Matt. I am grateful for your contributions to us all using (B)LFS.
