Hi ! Just a little question in the light of the discussion we had at Kernel Summit about merging drivers upstream (and here, I strongly agree with Linus, hence my message).
I just got that new T61 laptop which happens to have an iwl4xxx chip. The distro I installed on it (ubuntu) has a driver for it. I suspect others do too and most users get it from some random external tree and use it. Thus my question, why are we about to release 2.6.23 without it ? It doesn't seem to pull any depedency nor affect any other external piece of code unless I'm missing something, so it's a perfect example of what we've been discussing back then: there is just no point not merging it at any time right ? :-) Cheers, Ben. - 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/
