The 0.9pre1 tag looks old; I've been looking for newer releases periodically and 0.9pre1 wasn't available. It would help a lot if upstream could get their acts together and actually put out releases of mcelog. Shrug. No daemon mode until the next upstream release. I'll upload 0.9pre1, that'll help with some bugs and bring support for newer CPUs. > The trigger mode would be also nice, I guess, but it requires kernel > 2.6.21. Which kernels does squeeze support on i386 and amd64? Lenny has 2.6.26 already, so that's not an issue.
