Why are you using grsec?

Just backporting a single driver, usually isn't that easy, as it relies on other parts of the kernel. The kernel is ment to be used as a "whole" release, picking and choosing is very tough at times, and you will be on your own. I don't recommend it at all. good luck, greg k-h _______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
