Re: Linux 2.4.18-pre9

[Simon Turvey]

Can you tell me if the final 2.4.18 will solve the problems with recent
binutils?  Or is the onus on the binutils maintainer to fix this?

    Simon Turvey

What driver are you having problems with?

Typically this problem is solved by a one-line fix to a specific driver,
in 2.4.x.

Hi Jeff,

I tried to compile a non-modular 2.4.18-pre9 with as much as possible

Hope this was an invitation for others also.

If more info is needed, let me know.

binutils: 2.11.92.0.12.3

The conclusion reached on the list was that the binutils change while suprising
and somewhat annoying is actually perfectly correct and reasonable. The kernel
should eventually work with the new binutils but its up to people with that
binutils to keep testing and chasing down remaining problems

Re: Linux 2.4.18-pre9

Hi Marcelo,

is there any chance for including the latest PPP patch from Paul (2.4.2 -
20020205) and Michael's pppoe patch 0.6.10 -- only those "two" patches eliminate
the PPP deadlocks!  Might be worth putting these into 2.4.18 final ? :-)
Thanks,

Immanuel

Unfortunately, no. Such patches should be integrated in early -pre series.

2.4.19-pre-early will probably have Paul's PPP fixes.

There are still some module license tags missing. I only looked explicitly 
for GPL modules; others might be ok as well.

Patch is against 2.4.18-pre9; I assume 2.5.x also needs this one.
                                                                  -o)
