I did build it before sending it. My initial submission to you was based on 2.6.7 and you'd said it was applied. My current submission is 2.6.7 based too, and I didn't check for any driver changes since you'd said you already applied it (although I couldn't confirm it since I did not know which bk tree you use). The current patchset builds fine on my setup on 2.6.7. Please let me know what I missed so that I can take care of such things in future. Thanks, Kiran
