Are KMP packages in the BS build now against update kernels? Without them, it makes this quite useless. :( Bernhard -- "I might disagree with what you have to say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it." -- Voltaire

Do they contain any non-opensource stuff ? If not, I would be happy, if you can prepare a kmp module in the build service. bye adrian -- Adrian Schroeter SUSE Linux Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nuernberg, Germany email: adrian@suse.de --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

Please talk to the maintainer to get it into the official Linus kernel. Once those are in, we will enable it the module, Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger, aj@suse.de, http://www.suse.de/~aj/ SUSE Linux Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126

There was a dispute with the maintainer who was using hooks into the kernel, he threw a tantrum after pleading unsuccessfully to be treated as a special case and asked for his code to be removed from the kernel, it duly was. Alan Cox then stepped up to support an alternative that was somewhat limited at first, subsequently the original maintainer relented, but his code was never reinstated, so I doubt we'll see it in any openSUSE products - it was/is encumbered by a NDA between the maintainer and Philips.
