I implemented it as early as 2.4.3 and was vey dissapointed with the attrocious lack of documentation for it. It's a very promising 'idea' and ultimately will have to be implemented as there just aren't enuff device nodes 'out there' anymore. But god help me it sucks badly if you have non mainstream devices. > FWIW, i've successfully built & booted every kernel since 2.4.3. Some > have turned out to be duds, but they did boot.

There I was thinking 2.4.10 would be pretty close to the bleeding edge and #13 is there already! What gives with maintstream kernels these days? It seems everything put out so far should have been called 2.5.x for the amount of problems each one has caused. -- http://linux.nf -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
