The reason of course is that I've experienced many problems with 2.0.x

I just recently looked at that. There seemed to be only a driver for 2.2.12,
it may work with 2.2.16+ if forced, but it certainly won't work with 2.4.0

Is there any working open-source code for this? If so I can port it to 2.4.0
myself. Otherwise is there any support for 2.4.0 coming from Lucent?

3) You repeatedly send out auto-reply messages. If I cared about whether
Jonathan Kent read my messages then I would only need to be informed of his

ready.
I just recently looked at that. There seemed to be only a driver for 2.2.12,
it may work with 2.2.16+ if forced, but it certainly won't work with 2.4.0
(which I use).
Is there any working open-source code for this? If so I can port it to 2.4.0
myself. Otherwise is there any support for
nt sound card with a different driver, so
naturally the drivers settings have changed, but all else is the same.
Any suggestions?

In /usr/src/linux/Documentation/devices.txt there is no reference to gpmctl.
Maybe it should be a pipe? Try making it a pipe and see what happens.

For when the X server dies I have the SAK enabled in the kernel. CTRL-ALT-BS
isn't good enough, if the X server gets properly wedged then it won't accept
keyboard input.
