The linux-2.6 thing groups nicely for ls, but make tab complete a waste of time, and is pretty pointless as you say. nvidia-agp I apologise for, it just came with that name from upstream, I meant to rename it to at least agp-nvidia. I don't suppose we could use a subdirectory called patches if we want to keep ls clean.. this being the 21st century :) Dave. > > Dave > _______________________________________________ Fedora-kernel-list mailing list Fedora-kernel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-kernel-list
