Marcelo Tosatti: Linux 2.4.21-rc5

Linux

Tosatti kiadott egy újabb release candidate kernelt. Akik VIA alaplappal rendelkeznek, és megpróbálták lefordítani, azok szomorúan tapasztalhatták, hogy a VIA IDE kódnál elszáll a fordítás. Az oka az, hogy a PCI_DEVICE_ID_VIA_8237 definíciója elmaradt. A 2.4.21-rc6 javítást hoz erre a hibára.

Jogos. Utananeztem az LKML-en. Az -rc5 valoban nem fordul a fent emlitett definicio hianya miatt. Az -rc6 uton van.
