Subject: My fixes to ide-tape in 2.4.20-ac2
Date: Fri, 13 Dec 2002 22:44:24 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20021213224424.A3446@devserv.devel.redhat.com> (raw)

Hi:

I checked that my fixes were not corrected by Alan Stern,
and re-diffed them against 2.4.20-ac2. I think it would
be right if Alan (Cox :-) applied this patch to -ac3 or something.
Marcelo agreed to take it many times but forgot to actually apply.

36628 I/O error reading HP Colorado 5GB tape drive
62267 Segfault when insmod'in the ide-tape driver
I6809 ***** B5: divide error: 0000

36628:
Removes extra buffer flush from read_position(), which confuses
all versions of the HP Colorado.
Also touches up on insane logging.
