The attached patch does two things:
1) Take PCI devices to D0 state before enabling them. We both think
this is the right thing to do, but there is always the crazy chance this

2) Adds pci_disable_device. Right no

Hi.
I hope this is the correct place to report to.
I have installed kernel 2.4.3 but my system is having a few problems
compiling things. Not all software is having problems it just seems to
be the most important ones. like mozilla or alsa-driver, I would like to
try others to test this but it's
Hi,
I recently noticed some weird behaviour in devfs.
- some symlinks not showing up in directory listings, although they
are surely existing. I noticed this with symlinks created by devfsd
for IDE devices (/dev/hda{9,10,11} showing in normal ls, other hda
entries are hidden). If I explici
No, one rule would be MUCH faster. What's do you think would be faster of the two:
if ((ipaddr>=3232235521)&&(ipaddr<=3232235774))
return 1;
else
return 0;
or
for (a=0;a<(3232235774-3232235521);a++)
if (ipaddr==a)
return 1;
return 0;
Obviously it compares the 192.168.0.1 -

Hi,
another zinger that I am sending to LKML because I don't know where else to send it ...
I've discovered a deadly combination of kernel & lilo (and raid). This may be a pure
lilo bug, but I assume that the kernel+raid aids & abets the problem...:
I am running kernel-2.4.x. Two ide hard d

You could put the computation in a low-priority thread, so that it
still gets done but doesn't mess up responsiveness.
