If only you didn't use lkml.org links, that site is flaky beyond unusable. Please use lkml.kernel.org/r/$msgid, that way people actually have a chance of getting a working link and/or finding it in their local archive. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
