PS: two tips: - use "reply to all" when you reply to a message in the lkml - when you quote previous discussion, place your answer below the quote, instead of above ;) These things are common courtesy & practice on the lkml. (see: http://kernel.org/pub/linux/docs/lkml/ for reference) - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
