People should sent their patches concerning especially Linux-Next fixes not only to LKML but also to <linux-next@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> (if this is not known, pointing to James). 2. These patches for Linux-Next should contain a "-next" in their subject-line (use 'git format-patch --subject-prefix="PATCH -next" ...'). Of course, I should have checked the MLs... but for me it was not clear what was the root cause (which subsystem to blame)... I had only some suspicions. Anyway, noone gave me any pointer on how to log bastard logs before my system got frozen (2nd machine not available). I know that is tricky! For a better world... Regards, - Sedat - > -- > tejun
