I'll try again later (once I've finished fixing all our patches to account for 4 levels ;). I must admit to be a bit perplexed however.

I'm probably just extremley naive as to what customers really want, however. -i - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ia64" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
