Date: Thu, 21 Oct 2004 12:08:13 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1098356892.17052.18.camel@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
For those who need the various patches and bits I've been doing. Also if
people have small, clearly correct fixes to real problems in 2.6.9 that
ought to go into a production 2.6.9 series kernel please mail me a copy
and I'll merge those so we don't get the 2.6.8.1 audio ripping mess
again.
