I attach a new patch - with CMSPAR and > PARENB which I assume is also parity related. Much better, thanks, but the tabs all seem to have been removed from this patch, making it impossible to apply. Also, I need a "clean" patch, against the 3.1 tree at the least, in order to be able to apply this, not against a previous version of your patch. Also, run your patch through the scripts/checkpatch.pl script to ensure it is correct before sending it out. Care to fix this up and resend so that I can apply this? thanks, greg k-h -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-usb" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
