2.4.23-pre7-pac1

[Bernhard Rosenkraenzer]

$SUBJECT, AKA the "just returning from vacation release", is at

ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/bero/2.4/2.4.23/

Not many changes other than syncing with what happened while I was gone:

- Sync with 2.4.23-pre7
- Make sure everything compiles
- Update DRI (good news for SiS graphics users: If you use this
  along with XFree86 CVS, you'll have hw accelerated 3D)

HT box, no full ACPI? You can turn ACPI completely on as a workaround, i 
believe folks are still looking at an elegant way of doing this.

Strange is that I don't have nothing about ACPI selected in the .config ...
And I can't, since it doesn't support my ASUS M3N Laptop.

What is the point of this hunk?

If I listen to the evil whispers and say "m" to CONFIG_IP_SCTP,
then my build logs are spammed by messages like the following:

Since there are no changes to stcp code in -pac, this should also
be a problem for mainline.

A pure oversight, fixed in -pac2

They were available, but didn't work -- I've re-added them to the 
Config.in file for people who want to play with it.
