Is it the intent to make it harder (non-obvious and complicated) to do things that people want to do and are trivial on all other OSes? Remember, this used to work trivially...it's a regression. If the only excuse for the limit is that some devices don't like large transfers, I don't buy it. Those devices should be the exception, not the rule. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee.
