Hi Linus,
I'd like to ask you to include the osst driver into the next 2.4 kernels.
The osst driver is a new SCSI high-level driver, able to drive the OnStream
SC-x0, DI-x0 and USBx0 tape driver, offering a st interface to the userspace.
The reason for its existance is, that those OnStream devs a

The file corruption I reported on Dec 6 is still there in test13-pre3.
(I can only reproduce it easily with the ext2 online resizing patches,
but I really don't think it is caused by them)
The corruption happens if invalidate_buffers calls put_last_free() on
buffers that belong to mapped pages. T

This is the final version of my rcpci45.c patch. It is somewhat more

I would appreciate feedback since I don't know half of what I am doing

I'd like to play with you patch, but certainly from a first glance, it would

Hi. Is there a way to support vpn in the 2.4.0 kernels like we had
with the patch for the 2.2.x kernels?
Any assistance would be appreciated.

Hi. I am having strange nfs problems in both my 2.x and 2.4.0-test12
kernels.
What is happening is that when the machine boots up and exports the
directories for nfs, it complains that
ccs2:/ invalid argument .
The exports entry is
/ ccs2(rw,no_root_squash)
Now in Kernel 2.2.18, if I stop an

Sorry for this lengthy post, I read ide.txt, large-disk-howto.txt and

So go ahead. If you think that's so simple and obviously right you can post
here a patch here against 2.2.19pre2 that implements C) to show real facts.

Its an in progress thing. The next stage is to remove ymf_sb completely as
we have done in 2.2.19pre and to put the ymf_sb midi magic into it

Hello, Alan!
Thank you for applying my patch to test13pre3-ac3!
However, there is a glaring bug in drivers/sound/Config.in -
CONFIG_SOUND_YMFPCI is declared twice - once outside CONFIG_OSS, then
inside CONFIG_OSS. I'm removing the later declaration.

Indeed it is.

I'm not on this list, so please respond directly to me for more info.
I was running 2.4.0-12 (back to -10 now), K6-2 chip. With -12, the system

Hi
I am going to create a shell-server for a networking-meeting with
cd-writer. Usually, this is not a problem, but I would like to know if
there are any kernel-patches which can limit the io-bandwidth for a user
to the harddisk so that a user which is using the cd-writer has at least
x kb/s.
