[PATCH] - Linux 2.4.5; devfs support for /dev/raw

2001-06-19 Thread Chris Rankin

I had already two crashes with ac15. The system was still ping-able, but login over the network didn't work anymore. The first crash happened after I started xosview and noticed that the system almost used up the swap (for no apparent reason). The second crash happened shortly after I started fsc
