    SubjectRe: syscall from modules
    hi,
    if i export these syms .. firstly ill have to
    change the source/patch the kernel which is not
    advisable then every time i write such a module .. ill
    have to make sure that i export all these symbols and
    there are no conflicts due to some wierd deps that
    might be present ( u never know ! ) So i am looking
    for a descent way to do the same

    Still in need of help,
    Amber
