Linux-Kernel:
Roll up, roll up its 2.1.131ac11 time. A big pile of merges for
drivers and several fixes. I think the 8390 SMP problem is now
mostly nailed. As I’ve been working on merging the driver stuff I’m
well behind on the configuration fixing work. Thats all stacked up
as is some stuff I need to feed past other people (ie bits of the
kernel I dont understand).
