Since I've recently participated in a 'cost-synergy' [cough] program at VA, I'm currently taking over development of the project solo. Please note my new e-mail address. Bug reports, patches, job offers, etc are welcome. Of note in the release: - PPC Linux support. newburn will launch without modifications on PPC and x86 Linux, and behaviour on both platforms is similar. - devfs support. The hardware detection routines will traverse the symlink mess in devfs and handle everything correctly now. - Untested LVM support (Derrick Lee/VA). The burn-in test will by default ignore physical devices with LVM partitions, instead choosing to test the LVM virtual device. - A smattering of bugfixes. Please see the project page for the full release notes and Changelog at http://sourceforge.net/projects/va-ctcs. If you want to be notified of all project releases, use the Monitor link on that page. I only post to linux-kernel when a major feature set improvement is made. Thanks, Jason T. Collins _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
