The second set of primarily networking diffs are now at ftp://shadow.cabi.net/pub/Linux/2.1.24-patch2.gz
They should get mirrored onto funet soon. Please check funet first. shadow.cabi.net is on a slow link, its also currently on a slow link behind a UK/US link with one of its T1s out while the phone company find why its dropping 50% of packets.
This fixes the following over the last one:
o 8390.c compiles ok. o 'idle task cannot sleep' [note 1]. o Add extra AX.25 etc networking patches from Jon Naylor. o Localtalk works, IPDDP might work - I don't currently have the setup to find out. Does anyone in the UK have any spare localtalk cards. I'm after both a farallon board and the NL1000/Dayna etc COPS supported boards. I've got 98% of a driver for the NL1000 et al but need the hardware to finish it. o Masquerading behaviour. o Other small networking bugs. o Exceptions occur on networking. o Sangoma WANPIPE drivers added. May not work yet. o Sangoma Wan router module partly cleaned up and added. o A few syscalls are now not locked on SMP (stuff like getpid()). o DOSemu runs ok on SMP boxes now. o Doesn't default to an SMP build. o SMP knows B step MMX pentiums dont have the MP bugs
[1] Something is funny in the current dependancies I think. I had some odd goings on with regards to rebuilding net/core/firewall.c. I had to make clean in the end - odd. There was a real bug too but watch the make clean.
