Ok, finally I've collected some time together and I merged the needed patches. So, I'm pleased to release 2.6.14-bs3, and hope I have not done any mess! Seriously, there's no new code in it, however the two SKAS0 things which I merged have given their share of problems in the past. The modify_ldt() patch (the one for Ubuntu TLS) wasn't merged before because it didn't compile well, and I didn't have the time to fix it properly. So, enjoy it, and report any bugs! (As an aside, if you know of the issue - 32-bit and 64-bit COW file formats are still incompatible, no fix here yet). -- Inform me of my mistakes, so I can keep imitating Homer Simpson's "Doh!".

What does this have that isn't already in mainline? Rob -- Steve Ballmer: Innovation! Inigo Montoya: You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means. |

What does this have that > isn't already in mainline? Backports _are_ backports, i.e. hopefully (up to a certain, limited degree), more stable. However, the last SKAS0 compilation patch (Stop the insanity) has not yet been merged in mainline. -- Inform me of my mistakes, so I can keep imitating Homer Simpson's "Doh!".
