Package: kernel-source-2.6.10
Version: 2.6.10-5
Severity: normal
Hello !
I just did notice that the new/old packet writing support doesn't provide
it's own device major
number, namely 97, so the whole stuff is unusable.
Just adding
pkt_major = 97;
after the beginning of int pkt_init(void) does the trick.
Could it be fixed, or would there be a better way to fix it ?
Thanks
Vincent Fourmond
