Hi, It would be great, if someone could generate a patch against 2.4.21 and update the ftp.kernel.org:/pub/linux/kernel/ports/ppc dir (or put it anywhere else). Thanks. bye, Roman ** Sent via the linuxppc-dev mail list. See http://lists.linuxppc.org/

well if your using powermac hardware no patch is really necessary. unless you using very very new powermac hardware in which case you need a benh patch from /pub/linux/kernel/people/benh/. -- Ethan Benson http://www.alaska.net/~erbenson/ ** Sent via the linuxppc-dev mail list.

I want to synchronize the APUS tree and I usually use linuxppc_2_4 for that. I can't use bk and the rsync tree is already at pre2. BTW how different is linuxppc_2_5 from Linus' tree? bye, Roman ** Sent via the linuxppc-dev mail list. See http://lists.linuxppc.org/

The linuxppc_2_5 tree is completely obsolete. You want the linuxppc-2.5 tree, which is fairly close to Linus' tree. There are some 4xx bits in there that I will send to Linus once I am happy with the way we do things on the 440, plus some bits for some embedded 6xx platforms that Tom checked in there recently. The linuxppc_2_4 tree is also pretty much obsolete. There is now a linuxppc-2.4 tree descended from Marcelo's linux-2.4 tree, which should be used for any ongoing 2.4 development (which should definitely be tapering off now). Why do you want to work on 2.4.21 when any patch you submit will need to be against Marcelo's latest version? There are substantial PPC changes in Marcelo's 2.4.22-pre2.

In the APUS CVS repository I only track full releases. To generate patches I can still use a rsynced tree locally. bye, Roman ** Sent via the linuxppc-dev mail list. See http://lists.linuxppc.org/

Nice!
that. I can't use bk and the rsync tree is already at pre2. BTW how different is linuxppc_2_5 from Linus' tree?
I still have local copies of the linuxppc_2_4 and linuxppc_2_4_devel rsync
trees while they were still at 2.4.21. I can generate patch, just drop me an
email.

A patch for linuxppc_2_4 would be great. Thanks. bye, Roman ** Sent via the linuxppc-dev mail list. See http://lists.linuxppc.org/
