Actually, this fix is already in kernel-patch-2.4.27-ia64 (2.4.27-3). It was included when I resync'd with upstream; I didn't include a reference in the changelog because I was unsure if the CAN ID was public yet. kernel-patch-2.4.27-ia64 has already made its way into sarge, and: <vorlon> anyway, yeah, 2.4 kernels are also being synced up; I've already approved 2.4.27-8 in for ia64 2.4.27-8 was built against -3, so it sounds like this fix should already be going in. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
