I just recompiled the kernel - we'll see if I notice any change. However, I don't yet fully understand what HYSTERESIS actually does. There's a FAQ on docum.org, but I still don't get it. What does 'packets in pairs' mean? Multiple packages at once sounds to me like burst. I wish they would make such things available in kernel configuration menu, with a proper explanation. If you look in the code, there is loads of stuff that can be customized in the kernel by changing defines directly, but you rarely can change those things via kernel config. :-( Andreas _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
