But It is hard, they only give the patch for the main version, say 2.4.x x< 5 and 2.4.5; I patch to 2.4.5 then apply the ac22 series, it spits errors, then I had to patch manually but may be I made a mistake somewhere, when compile it gave me errors, Okay some one may tell me to use FOLK, but I tried last time, and failled to compile, ( I fogot the error message sorry, ) so now I have to use 2.4.4 with JFS. The same for supermount, the patch is only for 2.4.0, but this time I am ok to manually patch it. --- John Silva wrote: > Supermount has been integrated into the Mandrake 8 > kernel (2.4); > I have been unable to locate the standalone patch > for this, however. > > Steve Kieu wrote: > > > > --- Sam Halliday <10226982@qub.ac.uk> wrote: > > This > > email was delivered to you by The Free > > > Internet, > > > a Business Online Group company. > > > http://www.thefreeinternet.net > > I totally aggree, supermount is nice features and > it > > should be integrated into the main kernel stream > (just > > my HO) > > > > > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------- > > > hello, > > > i am fairly new to linux, i need it's fast > > > number crunching powers > > > for my research... and i have only recently > begun to > > > have a look at the > > > kernel (i believe every workman should know his > > > tools)..... but i have > > > noticed that supermount is not a standard part > of > > > the project, is there > > > any reason why this is? is it due to man power? > i > > > would have been less > > > shocked by the absense of other features in the > > > > > > > > radio support, supermount seems to me to be > > > essential in any operating > > > system..... > > > i apologise if this is a very silly question > or > > > if i have posted > > > this question in the wrong place, but please > excuse > > > me, im new to this > > > whole world. > > > > > > and keep up the good work, i wish i knew more > about > > > the whole thing so i > > > could contribute something. > > > > > > Sam, Ireland > > > > > > - > > > 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/ > > > > ===== > > S.KIEU > > > > > _____________________________________________________________________________ > > http://messenger.yahoo.com.au - Yahoo!
