Thanks Oliver,

I better should have a look at the documentation of the newest kernel I
use. To explain, I got two systems: one for "surfin'", one for experimental
things. The "surfin'"-sys is a 2.0.35, which documentation does'nt contain
that information.
I have looked at the 2.2.3-doc and found the information I was searching for
- excuse me.
