Hi Brian:

There is currently a patch in patches/ (discover1-data.pci.lst.patch)
which patch the original pci.lst (2.4 kernel) such that it recognizes
certain hardware correctly under 2.6 kernel.  Provided that the discover
binary does the right thing, this patch is no longer necessary.

We need to test this though.  I don't have the specific hardware to test
but I'll try to ping some people to do it.

I will check out branch 3.6.x and work from there.  Right off the bat I
need to fix the systemimager.spec file, and I'll update the CHANGE.LOG
for the 3.5.4 -> 3.5.3 change.

Are there any restrictions for checking code into stable branch (3.6.x)
at this moment?

Cheers,

Bernard
