We are not in the kernel yet. acx currently is in -mm, not in mainline. We have quite a few users of it which aren't using -mm, but instead compile it out-of-kernel. We gradually removed 2.4 compat code and most of early 2.6isms. Even that produced a few complains. Currently out-of-tree acx is working for any kernel >= 2.6.10. I very much want to get rid of all remaining compat cruft, and I plan to do it as soon as acx will be present in mainline kernel. -- vda ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
