Very slim chances, I'm afraid. I pretty much let TT patches to rot because we had bugfixes overtaking them all the time, and here we're talking a bigger change here. You really need to think about moving to 2.6 for your platform. MIPS was supported for a long time in 2.6, Ralf was going a good job AFAIK. But also, the reason you're merging back is to have new releases coming in which you can incorporate into your firmware with minimal pain. In case of 2.4 this is not that big of a concern. There will not be big changes, your out-of-tree patch will continue to be applicable. -- Pete ------------------------------------------------------- The SF.Net email is sponsored by: Beat the post-holiday blues Get a FREE limited edition SourceForge.net t-shirt from ThinkGeek.
