- I've just tested the 8514/A X server with 0.97.pl5 and it works
- beautifully. The problems with the X server appearing to hang when
- quitting from TWM with the 0.97.pl2 and more recent kernels are
- fixed. Thanks Linux!
-
- On a different note, I noticed that if you are going to remove the
- scsi stuff from your kernel, you need to add an #undef CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SR
- to the bottom of the include/linux/config.h file.
-
- Thanks again Linux.
