BSD - Bastard patcheset for Linux kernel
Todays release (17f), https://ghost.anime.pl/~eyck/Projects/bsd/17f/ contains
- updated mount -o ro,bind patch from Herbert of Vserver fame
- updated netconsole patch
- re-added mga_vid driver for matrox and radeon cards
- re-added old OCFS (Oracle Cluster Filesystem)
- re-added old framebuffer logos
Warnings:
- 17f includes Jan Dubiec's newest mppe/mppc module. Unfortunatelly it contains fix for 'PFC bug', which, unless you're affected by 'PFC bug', triggers 'PFC bug'. 17g will be available with older (0.98) version of this module
- netconsole patch should not be trusted. As Herbert Poezl says:
11:51 < Bertl> eyck: it seems that some parts of the netpoll api ahve sneaked in for the following cards: 11:52 < Bertl> net/8139cp.c, net/b44.c, e1000/e1000, net/gt64240eth.c, net/mv64340, net/tg3.c
thus, you should be cautious with using this feature on those cards.
