Specialix SX cards not detected in kernels >=2.6.20
There were multiple changes to the char/sx.c driver in kernel 2.6.20. In kernels 2.6.19 and earlier, the SX multiport serial card works OK, but in 2.6.20 and later the driver does not seemt to detect the presence of the card. I have enabled sx_debug=-1 and added some printk statements to try and detect why the card is not detected. These show that sx_init is entered and within that function the call to pci_register_driver returns 0. I do not see any other routines in the driver being entered either at startup (when the module is loaded, which indicates that the system recognises the PCI ID) or when running 'modprobe sx'. In particular, sx_pci_probe() is never entered. lspci -vv for the card 10:01.0 Communication controller: Specialix Research Ltd. PCI_9050 Subsystem: Specialix Research Ltd.

Nobody is suggesting requiring other sites to *implement* ECN. If these sites either ignore the ECN bits or set them to 0, then there is no problem - an ECN capable system will still interwork fine. The problem is that they do not tolerate the fact that we are using the experimental facility and block connections when we indicate our willingness to use this facility.

As well as this, it might be worthwhile to complain to these sites. Otherwise if everyone just turns off ECN then those sites which block it will probably not fix their problem and ECN will not gain "public" acceptance. It would be great pity if this were to happen as ECN has the potential (if widely supported) to greatly reduce network congestion and bandwidth "waste". Would it perhaps be possible to have ECN enabled but use something such as IPTables to unset it when connecting to those sites which reject ECN connections?

2.4.0-prelease freezes on serial event
My 2.4.0-prerelease freezes solid on certain serial port events. The ones I have seen (and are both repeatable) are when powering off the modem and powering it on causes the system to hang solid. Also if an incoming call is received on the telephone, the system hangs ( I assume that this is when the modem sends 'RING' and asserts the RI hardware signal.) The serial port is used only for outgoing connections and there is NO getty process listening on it. I would suspect a hardware problem, except that I have never seen this before and on reverting to 2.4.0-test12 these actions do not cause any problems. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/

I agree, to me it seems obvious that the reason is so that these bits could be used at some time in the future for some, then unknown, purpose. Now that RFC 2481 has defined the bits, only implementations which grok and support ECN should be setting these bits, older implementations will (following RFC793) set them to zero and thus old and new implementations should correctly interwork. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
