[... snip ...] Hi Sam, maybe my prev letter was lost, so let me repeat - I think your patch is pretty good to be merged into kernel. Did you send any patch to Andrew? Btw I think we may leave "Load Alternate..." and "Save Alternate..." as is - the user always may know what the config he is using on the main dialog title :) Cyrill - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
