Subject: tiacx - don't use UTS_RELEASE
Date: Tue, 04 Jul 2006 11:07:59 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1152004080.3109.18.camel@laptopd505.fenrus.org> (raw)
Hi,
patch below removes the use of UTS_RELEASE from the tiacx driver; there
is absolutely no reason for a driver to print the kernel version or use
the UTS_RELEASE field; in addition this field changes all the time so
this causes spurious rebuilds..
