The change is in Marcelo's tree now, but I am curious what it actually does. The 2.4.17 patch readme says "This patch contains the current recommended kernel 2.4.7 code base (up to 2002-01-21), adapted to kernel 2.4.17.", but I cannot find this change in any published 2.4.7 patches. I am pretty sure there must be a good reason for the change, and it's interesting to know what it is. -- Pete
