Hello,
The 8x16 and Sun 12x22 kernel fonts I tried seem to lack some standard
glyphs necessary to represent the entire ISO-8859-1 charmap; I am talking
about all accented capital vowels except for 'É'.
This seems to happen in both 2.2.16 as well as in 2.2.18.
Is this intentional? If so, why?

Up to now, I have only had one of the network cards active, and connected

Good morning all.
First thing this morning I applied Jeff's patch, as below. Started off
well, ran for about 20 minutes (and 40 MBytes) before hanging.
Reversed out Jeff's change and applied Manfred's patch to the same lines in
pnic.c. Ran for about 15 minutes (28 Mbytes) before hanging.
Hi Alan,
This patch, against 2.2.19pre15, makes the compatibility functions static
so they don't pollute the namespace, and marks some of them as __init. It
has a few other small fixes from the 2.4 driver.
Please apply.
Thanks,

I'm still talking with Alexey about how to fix this, I might just

Andi you can make this now:
1) Add new "post-header data pointer" field in SKB.
2) Change drivers to copy into aligned headroom as
you mention, and they set this new post-header
pointer as appropriate. For

It simply cannot work, as
I have just purchased a new HD and I'm getting problems creating a
filesystem for it. I've done some research and some people claim the problem
might be kernel related so I'm asking here just in case.
The HD is a Maxtor 80 Gb, plugged to the Promise controller that comes with

I considered that, in practice it isn't going to make any difference, I

The latest drop of JFS was made available today.
The file system has fixes included.
The log manager no longer uses the page cache for log pages, this
eliminates dead-locks that were occurring in the log manager. The file system has
general work done to remove SMP dead-lock problems. fsck now

While doing some work on some ip options stuff, I have noticed a bunchof

2). This newer patch
