The patch I posted is supposed to >fix the problem. What do you want to tell to the user ? I assumed that the patch makes it possible to replace standard tfifo?! Tfifo provides strict ordering, other qdisc's do not. So I thought if someone use netem rate|jitter with e.g. SFQ then this should be mentioned somewhere. E.g. "rate|jitter can only be used with tfifo qdisc". Correct me if I am wrong. Cheers
