I had one patch that required a fuzz factor, but it only has a vendor ID definition in pci.h. It's the patch by Lukasz Trabinski, Subject "Re: [patch] 2.2.18 PCI_DEVICE_ID_OXSEMI_16PCI954", Date 2000-12-16 19:51 EST, Archive at http://www.uwsg.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0012.2/0126.html That patch has been approved by Theodore Y Tso as being correct. The other patches I applied did not leave any rejects behind. > > Could somebody please have a look at this?

It's at http://sourceforge.net/projects/serial/ and since these are down ATM, I'm keeping a copy at http://www-dt.e-technik.uni-dortmund.de/~ma/kernelpatches/v2.2/v2.2.18/ Procedure: 1. fetch 2.2.18-fix-serial-5.05-pre.patch (has also been posted here, it just adds a missing #define to pci.h) 2. fetch serial-5.05.tar.gz 3. patch the kernel with that 2.2.18-fix-serial-5.05-pre.patch, it takes a high fuzz factor (try patch -p1 -F10) 4. unpack serial-5.05 5. sh install-in-kernel 6. patch with VM-global-2.2.18pre25-7 7. make clean dep bzImage modules, install, boot, and see it hang. Note my kernel also contains the IDE and I²C patches, should that matter, if it matters, please tell the corresponding maintainer there's an incompatibility. For what it's worth, that www-dt server directory also has my config, it's named config-ma2. -- Matthias Andree - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
