I suspect it's worth fixing in 3.3 then, there's often issues where userspace applications don't work that don't get reported well or at all, often these are due to issues in the pointer implementations. People end up coming up with configurations that work around them and never think that there might be a driver issue. --KJY2Ze80yH5MUxol Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: Digital signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJPMQstAAoJEBus8iNuMP3dqucP/1ELiGCYFjUcw+H2duio+S4A tdvtlu835cQu29MOMHhkTaVhF2cRxoRb7OIzDgRwcc+4UoNMVJIbRiuL4DH0kExD uRjB9vtCJOEdKGdTrNRg5nP18Mh5WPyx2ebTwOETh5sgn8pIXE1pR558fJYOqhh+ d3rLcUVPW10bit3wm2dA3gtgoGUPUqRzJkAgTQwjTqS3rQhhNNKDv26DuAxfwlse Nbs7bA19whMU79Lq2EKe2CDirdyQ7bPBwHYrCQfNy3xul+yURlbSTvj1r8yszdqA /dK5IhR0h9hHROt9cu9eSSDvX2zKD7vcnEpL0sg27Fuu0D1XhTz1hQQhxOYMHk9a nj/s+oPYdt/4ez5hBglfVv57QymLJX5nz+NSQIsmdZVGOCvBGQ++Gf4qamEeJlIc u274G6TUq4ruhk3au2Tp4cRie4OgbRc3Z12pS5lcctbgqaYZBYjqvPzGGaJ6VZ2K 1GAX8uE6nxjI3zlUyCxxgKhorviimfV+BjDjA0oOpYQBQa/UKskAGdRIXnDc8gR7 P3YjQChol+iB810DLdf104mT7ooz5adDtvHmFDfyJF/L5o81nK+PtRKbDowWuvLL r9a/10Uah4CSLG/aWHJaobDbJ1ZbLq2AxCK1MR7hXJQrzXiak8nCA7BxCMJOGnya HLGzxIu8VKQrlNHIIwIG =H/XD -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --KJY2Ze80yH5MUxol-- --===============5255913843400307551== Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline --===============5255913843400307551==--
