I've already fixed it, submitted the patch to Linus several times, since 2.4.0-test3 or so and the IrDA maintainer has submitted his patch at least once. So far, Linus seems to be ignoring any patches to the IrDA code.
The problem you report is a regularly occuring problem that people has been reported several times in the past, and has been fixed long ago. Oh, and the patch has appeared on linux-kernel a couple of times, and had successful feedback.
You should be able to find the IrDA patch on the linux-irda project website somewhere (but I've not looked myself). _____ |_____| ------------------------------------------------- ---+---+- | | Russell King rmk@arm.linux.org.uk --- --- | | | | http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/personal/aboutme.html / / | | +-+-+ --- -+- / | THE developer of ARM Linux |+| /|\ / | | | --- | +-+-+ ------------------------------------------------- /\\\ | - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
