Jeff, does it mean that you do not use code reviews on other projects?

Yesterday i upgraded an old server (hand upgraded ever since 2.0.33 ->
2.2.16 i believe) to a new dist (rh6.2).
I installed a 2.2.16 suse kernel (no need to handpatch LVM + reiser :)).
This server has 4 IDE drives and 2 scsii drives, but only one drive is
giving me grief.
To note is that it has a

This patch adds page aging similar to what was in 2.0. The patch
is quite straight forward but I've had one lockup that I have
been unable to reproduce. I don't know if the lockup was caused
by my patch or was a test8 bug.
This patch is supposed to improve interactive performance,

You drive is getting flakey get another.
The Stratus drive class is very old and you are on the edge of you

The following is a little patch I've been having to
do to get development kernels to configure PCI right on
my G4. I know it's not the right thing to do, but I've
never managed to figure out what's wrong with the original;
maybe somebody who understands config-speak will know.
Anyway, with

Thanks to Jens David, the 8139too net driver has been backported to
2.2.x kernels:
http://gtf.org/garzik/drivers/8139too/8139too-0.9.9-2.2-diffs.gz
Although feedback is encouraged, it should be noted that this is an
unsupported driver. (I'm only supporting 8139too on 2.4.x right now..)

Hi Alan,
[Thanks to Arjan van de Ven for mailing me a patch that I have modified]
Since 2.2.18pre4 now has __setup and module_init stuff in it, here is
a patch to make the APM driver use it (as it does in 2.4.x).
Cheers,
Stephen
