Kirk I wonder if it isn't best to branch off cvs so that we have a number of branches: speakup for 2.2.x and kernels through 2.4.18 speakup for kernels 2.4.18 to 2.5.28 (or whatever) Bleeding edge speakup for the must-have-the-broken-stuff people. I know it is possible to branch cvs like this; I just don't know how. that way those of us running kernels 2.4.18 or less can check out one branch; and the testers can check out another branch. Just a thought. On Sun, Aug 18, 2002 at 12:53:52PM -0400, Kirk Reiser wrote: > You cannot ignore the miscdev.h patch rejection unless you don't want > a working system.
