Hello Andrew, I patched 2.4.20 with your patch found out on http://lwn.net/Articles/17447/ and I have a big problem with: once server is booted on 2.4.20 with your patch, when I want to reboot with /sbin/reboot, server makes a Segmentation fault and it crashs. I tested it on 50-60 servers and it is the same problem. I tested kernel 2.4.20 without your patch: no problem. # uname -a Linux XXXXXX

Asterisk - 1.8.4.1 Dahdi-linux - 2.4.1.2 Dahdi-tools - 2.4.1 Kernel: 2.6.37.6 Kernel BKL: enabled I am upgrading Asterisk on this box. It has an OpenVox A400P PCI analog card with 1 FXO and 1FXS module. This server has been running just fine for two years with Asterisk 1.6.1.0 I've just upgraded all the OS and installed Asterisk 1.8.4.1. On trying to configure the A400P I get:...

Hi! After switching from UMS (dated 20090701+c0bf670) to KMS (as of 2010-02-01), almost any X activity causes buffer underruns on my firewire soundcard. When the X pointer changes from arrow to the vertical text selection bar, firewire streaming is interrupted. Same with scrolling in firefox or hovering over a link, thus changing the pointer to "hand". Looks like nouveau is disabling

After switching all drivers' fbdev emulation to DRM client, the old fbdev hooks are now obsolete. Only amgdpu and nouveau still use them in a several places. Remove the hooks from the drivers and the DRM core. The series would ideally be merged at once via drm-misc-next. v2: - call vga_switcheroo_process_delayed_switch() from drm_lastclose() (Sima) - documentation updates Thomas

The following series of patches comprises the bulk of our outstanding changes for Ocfs2. Aside from the usual set of cleanups and fixes that were inappropriate for 2.6.25, there are a few highlights: The '/sys/o2cb' directory has been moved to '/sys/fs/o2cb'. The new location meshes better with modern sysfs layout. A symbolic link has been placed in the old location so as to
