Supporting something as part of the hardware/protocol design is one thing. Writing the device driver to support it is another (I'm sure that *before* you crash, you have to set bits in the appropriate OHCI structures). Actually allowing it to be enabled is a third thing. Having said that, it *would* make for an interesting kgdb enhancement. :) --==_Exmh_-528249359P Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Exmh version 2.5 07/13/2001 iD8DBQE/ouYPcC3lWbTT17ARAkAZAKDk6Z6cI2MgRZ25eYIKWhxGI+UQQACg3hMm pbNBj/4thmtyBN6tGFBpYhw= =eie0 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --==_Exmh_-528249359P--
