On hold till I get the time to fix all of the kernel tree up due to the
changes required.

Unless someone else wants to volunteer to do the work :)

thanks,

Kumar,

I'll help you on this b/c I need 64-bit resources ASAP to support
some new CPUs.

I'll like to see if we can get things into a state to have this ready 
for 2.6.13.  Do you have a tree around with the changes in it?  Do you 
have a sense of what work needs to be done.  If you give me some 
direction on things needing fixing I can start taking a look and 
working on patches.

Sorry, no tree, but here is the patch and info:
	http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/gregkh/pci/2.6/2.6.11-rc3/bk-resource*

I do have a few other patches laying around, but that should be a good
start :)

Good luck,
