Hello linuxers

I have uploaded to iglu, my third round of kernel rpms. Tease are 2.4.19 
kernel rpms patched with lowlatency patch, preemtible kernel and supermount. 

I also uploaded some linmodems drivers and lirc. (lirc is going to be more 
generic in the future). I also uploaded a few programs which use lirc (xmms 
lirc driver xawtv, and soon maybe xine). 

I also uploaded an update for modutils. linux-utils, e2fs-progs, reiserfsprogs 
 All were compiled in mdk8.1 so I guess that they should work with all above 
(packages were tested with mkd9.0 as well). I think RedHat 7.2 and 7.3 are 
good candidates for using any packages here.

Why installing those rpms? 
If you have a linmodem, you may want to d/l the kernel and d/l the precompiled 
driver for your modem. 
This kernel was splited into several packages, and by this making the d/l 
smaller. You don't need USB? no problems, don't download nor install it. You 
need USB suddenly? No problems Just install the USB packages and you are 
done. No more recompiling the kernel. The kernel almost as good as if it was 
compiled by you!

Hopefully soon I will be able to upload also a 2.4.20 version, if it is 
needed.

Notes:
The rpms do not install them selves in lilo/grub so you will need to do it 
yourself. The kernel images are in /boot/2.4.19/bzImage-2.4.19-1iglu.

If you have problems in the depmod -a, you may want to update modutils. I 
compiled a update from mdk's sources. It's on the mdk-misk dir.
