Hi! It seems to me that Andy goofed when he sent out 1.5.5! The kernel cdifs are against 1.5.3, and NO one except for the Beta test group has 1.5.3 to my knowledge(correct me if I am wrong). So trying to update the 1.5.0 kernel to 1.5.5 with the cdifs Andy posted is useless! I suppose we either have to wait until Andy comes back, or some of the Beta testers may be able to send cdiffs agains (missed a t there) 1.5.0. (I don't know if Andy would appreciate such a solution, since He alone has the OFFICIAL version) Sincerely Lars Fredriksen

The 1.5.3 kernel diffs never made it to the net. Gack! > I suppose we either have to wait until Andy comes back, or some of >the Beta testers may be able to send cdiffs against 1.5.0.

Then again, maybe the Good Doctor's flight to Rio hasn't left yet. :-) How about a repost, Dr. T?
