First of all, this shouldn't result in problems like the one he reported (see my other mail). And I'm surprised you are saying this. I'd have expected that running "make oldconfig" with a 2.4 kernel should give him a working configuration. Can you explain where you'd expect problems so that we can fix them? > Jesper Juhl cu Adrian -- "Is there not promise of rain?" Ling Tan asked suddenly out of the darkness.
