Thanks. I'm worried too. >From the responses in linux-parport I gathered some of the bugs are there because people have not used the code. Therefore I also considered removing it would be good, but was afraid to do so. Also there are drivers that would have use for it, but they just are currently implemented either by just reserving the whole parport and then doing their daisy chain magic. > You just sent ten patches, all with the same name.

I used "quilt mail" to send those patches and it seems it requires some additional trick I did not notice to make the patches have different subjects. I had read the document you referred to but missed that part. I also had picked somewhere the idea that having same subject helped group the patches. > I now need to invent names for your patches, and if I later refer to one of > them you won't know which one I'm talking about. Oh well. I can also resend the patches to you. I understand you have a lot to do already and I want to be of help, not burden. - 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/
