[patch] rio500 devfs support

2001-06-19 Thread Gregory T. Norris
The attached diff adds devfs support to the rio500 driver, so that /dev/usb/rio500 gets created automagically. It was generated against 2.4.5, but probably applies fine against any recent kernel. Comments are welcome (but be gentle, this is my first attempt at a kernel patch :-). Cheers! diff

Re: Agpgart for AMD761

2001-06-05 Thread Gregory T. Norris
It seems to be working just fine here (kernel 2.4.5), provided that the "agp_try_unsupported=1" option is specified. This tells the driver to assume that it behaves like known chipsets from the same vendor. On Tue, Jun 05, 2001 at 03:00:53PM +0200, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > I was wondering wha

2.4.1/2.4.2-pre3 lockup unmounting usbdevfs

I'm getting an intermittent (but fairly reproducible) lockup under 2.4.1 and 2.4.2-pre3, which seems to be occurring when usbdevfs is unmounted. The system appears to freeze almost completely; I can still switch VCs (assuming I wasn't in X at the time) but little else. Sometimes (but not always)

Re: [BUG] That bloody /usr/local busy back again

2000-09-18 Thread Gregory T. Norris
I finally had a chance to try it out under 2.2.17... no hint of a problem there. So presumably it is a 2.4.0-testX kernel issue. I don't know what apt-move does which triggers it, but it seems to do it quite reliably. On Sun, Sep 17, 2000 at 12:13:14PM -0500, Gregory T. Norris wrote: >

Do you have an apt-move mirror on that filesystem, by any chance? I see the same thing on an ext2 partition, which I've been able to verify is *definately* related to apt-move. I haven't yet filed a bug report, because I need to try it out under 2.2.17 first. On Sun, Sep 17, 2000 at 01:17:11PM
