it is implicitly included via the link of usbcore.

Alan,
Were Linux to go totally modular in 2.5, development cycles will be
reduced by 1/2 to 1/3. This is because you could always roll back to
known good modules to post a release. The way you guys are going, if
Linux stays monolithic, your cycles will get longer and longer.

What about creating three kernel series:

What is the preferred method of doing this? Would one big "fix
all license statements" patch be preferred, or multiple "fix this

Does somebody know if there are somewhere for some linux kernel
some patches that implement eigrp?
I know it's a proprietary Cisco protocol, but I don't know the
licensing terms, so I'm asking if someone here know something
about.

Thanks for the suggestion. I tried it and you're right: it booted normally and
then gave me an oops. For now, I've managed to get my network card "sort of"
working with 2.3.51, and I'm going to try to resolve the remaining problems with
that. Also, now that I know it's a umsdos problem and n

Sure, I can make it slip revs that the elevator can not correct.
Hop platters, if we know where they begin/end.
I can do write_verify_read that can never be done in a
1. Does Linux use call gates (as specified in the Intel SDK vol.3) when a
user process makes a system call? From what I understand, call-gates let a
ring-3 process execute ring-0 code, which sounds exactly like a system call.
I've found all of the actual system call functions (sys_ni etc.) in sys
Hi!
No chance getting this to work on 2.2 now, try 2.4.0, it should work.
I hope to fix 2.2 later ...

I'm not saying this because the "something else" doesn't look completly idiotic

I complained few days ago that 'agpgart.o' module from 2.2.18pre
is causing a kernel oops. The problem turned out to be an apparent
assumption that PCI memory <-> memory mapping is an identity and
this is not always the case.
Here is a patch applicable to all 2.2.18pre kernels with agpgart

Hi Linus & Alexander
It seems that we were all wrong in assuming that ext2 was fixed
wrt. filesystem corruption. test10pre3 once again has the potential
to eat files (not sure about earlier versions).
I finally managed to capture an oops (by hand), so bear with me that
I didn't typo anywhere.
