You guessed right. Your non-technical note was applicable. Andrew - why doesn't your "The perfect patch" mention this? http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/tpp.txt Linus - would you like a patch to Documentation/SubmittingPatches that mentions this? Hmmm ... I don't even see the "Acked-by" in these patch guides either. Probably I should include that in SubmittingPatches as well. Too bad that first line doesn't start "Author:" instead of "From:". Oh well - I see Andrew already suggested that, and you declined. (You should'a listened to him ;). -- I won't rest till it's the best ... Programmer, Linux Scalability Paul Jackson 1.925.600.0401
