Hi David, OK I guess I misunderstood things again. The in-kernel versions of both dca and ioatdma are the latest and greatest. The stuff on our SF site are very dated at this point but were used as a mechanism to get the code out before it went into the kernel. Please use the in-kernel version only, especially for recent kernels.
Cheers, John ----------------------------------------------------------- "Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.", Benjamin Franklin 1755 >-----Original Message----- >From: Ronciak, John [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] >Sent: Friday, October 17, 2008 4:25 PM >To: David Lawless; Nelson, Shannon; Sosnowski, Maciej; Duyck, >Alexander H >Cc: e1000-devel@lists.sourceforge.net >Subject: Re: [E1000-devel] DCA question > >David, > >I'm pretty sure that our QA team was working on .26 but I'm not sure. >I've sent mail to them but they are in Poland so I won't here >back until >Monday.
