Hi All, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
linux-sources-2.4.17-r4 is here, and includes the following changes from |
| 4 |
-r3: |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
* xfs was updated from "26 Jan 2002" to "13 Feb 2002" |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
* ide patch updated from "01192002" to "02072002" |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
* preempt patch was updated from 2.4.17-1 to 2.4.17-3 |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
* irqrate-a1 was removed (closing bug #396 and possibly others) |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
* acpi-20020208-2.4.17 was added but then removed. It conflicts with |
| 15 |
stock aic7xxx SCSI driver and a bunch of other stuff; bug report sent |
| 16 |
"upstream" to their bug tracker at |
| 17 |
http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/acpi and also recorded in our bug |
| 18 |
tracker at http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=689 . We will add |
| 19 |
this patch back once these various issues have been resolved. |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
Generally, everyone should upgrade but those who have had no problems |
| 22 |
with -r3 and need the updated ACPI functionality in -r3 should probably |
| 23 |
stay where they are. |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
Best Regards, |
