Because that's what I originally merged against, and I didn't want to remerge against .19.That is rather not a sound answer. Why did you choose to merge with 2.4.10-pre3 instead of 2.4.19? I apply other patches to kernel that may well conflict with other pre series and I'm not alone. Most of *normal* people make patches only for official stable kernels (e.g ntfs, kdbg, packet writing for UDF). Again I think this is just a lack of methodlogy (like non usage of acessible bug tracking system...).
He applied against 2.4.20-pre3, deal with it. You could: 1. Run 2.4.18 OR 2. Port the patch to 2.4.19 yourself if you are such a expert on "methodology" OR 3. Install Windows XP. One of these three options is meant as a joke.
