similar to: Serial PnP for NUT?

PnP BIOS for x86 is part of drivers, so I missed it in the initial GDT page alignment patch. Kudos to Andrew for fixing that. Unfortunately, fixing the build introduced a kernel panic when trying to setup the as of yet unallocated GDTs for the APs. This fixes the problem by setting only the BSP's GDT, then copying the PnP segments back to the cpu_gdt_table template. Signed-off-by: Zachary

Wait for driver installations fired by the PnP manager to complete before running firstboot scripts. The first patch is a minor refactoring to pave the way for the second patch. The latter contains the bulk of the changes as well as the description of the idea.

Simple question. In the motherboard bios should PnP OS be enabled or disable on motherboard running Centos 4.x? Matt

Move PnP BIOS segment definitions into segment.h; the segments are reserved here, so they might as well be defined here as well. Note I didn't do this for APM BIOS, as Macintosh and other systems use those values to emulate APM in some scary way I don't want to understand.

PnP BIOS data, code, and 32-bit entry segments all have fixed limits as well; set them in the GDT rather than adding more code. It would be nice to add these fixups to the boot GDT rather than setting the GDT for each CPU; perhaps I can wiggle this in later, but getting it in before the subsys init looks tricky. Also, make some progress on deprecating the ugly Q_SET_SEL macros. Signed-off-by:

The one remaining caller of set_limit, the PnP BIOS code, calls into the PnP BIOS, passing kernel parameters in and out. These parameteres may be passed from arbitrary kernel virtual memory, so they deserve strict protection to stop a bad BIOS from smashing beyond the object size. Unfortunately, the use of set_limit was badly botching this by setting the limit in terms of pages, when it really

Unfortunately, many cheap ones don't or have implementation flaws (the Sweex 1000 for instance, which calculates the CRC in the wrong way). In fact, there are a fair number of UPSes in the list of

Hi All, I am trying to run guestfish inside an Ubuntu instance running in VirtualBox. I'm running into problems, and my first question, is this setup even possible? I compiled and installed libguestfs-1.8.4. Running libguestfs-test-tool fails with the following output. Would appreciate any advice, Chris new guestfs handle 0x8b77958 ===== Test starts here ===== LIBGUESTFS_DEBUG=1 library

Hello All, I am looking for a sip phone that is capable of automatic nat. The Cisco ata186 for example works fine for natting with iconnecthere, but as for asterisk, both my 7960 and polycom ip600 require you to set the nat ip on the tftp. Does anyone know a good phone (or ata) that can do this automatically? For example, I want to give a phone to my brother, who is going to europe. His ICH

I am trying to figure out how to create a PnP Gateway. What I understand it does is this. My server Ip: 192.168.100.1 Dhcp range 192.168.100.xxx/24 Sub 255.255.255.0 Gateway 192.168.100.1 What I am looing to do from what I understand is allow someone with a static ip of say like 1.1.1.1/24 and a gateway of 1.1.1..254 to connect to the network and access the network. Can someone point me where

Hi Everyone! I've been trying to get my Nvidia 9800m GT working with the latest nouveau drivers with no luck so far. First of all I'd like to mention that this is a weird card as it is an SLI in one piece of hardware (not 2 separated cards). It came with my Dell XPS M1730 laptop. I know SLI is not currently supported and _I don't want_ to use SLI, I just would like to use one of
