Yeah, Danny!
But if someone's simply ignoring to apply debug functions into his module code
and thus reducing the essence of debugging to wild guessing around,
transforming the whole testing situation into a torture / and / or disaster
then I am inclined to call exactly this someone to be nothing but a looser,
not only on the human layer, but also on the technical layer.
And that's exactly the reason why I want his stuff to be ripped out of
mm-tree.
Sincerely
Uwe
P. S.: Never DO show a humble and unexperienced Linux hacker that his
experience is utmost limited! But if you do you earn nothing but the output
of utmost primitive "Godzilla" drives (i. e. being flamed for example).
I. E.:
A. Not all linux developers are proven to be asocial ape-instinct-limited
people (I do know a very long exception list and that's why I take part in
that), but some of them are, proven by facts!
B. The "Godzillas" are not limited to people living in Germany, but instead
they are in fact everywhere, as the capitalist bullshit system produces them
like gnomes on an assembly line!
