Subject: [PATCH] mdacon needs to use __setup()
Date: Sat, 24 Mar 2001 04:23:13 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3ABC6781.6FFEF3FA@yahoo.com> (raw)
The kernel command line setup function for MDA console support is
currently dangling in outer space and not called (and hence non
functional). There was also a warning about a non used function
whose callers were half /* */ 'ed out so I cleaned that up as well.
Patch should apply to any recent 2.4.x kernel.
Paul.
