reiser4 people: I do not offically support the use of reiser4 on this patchset, as such I can't verify that reiser4 will actually work. If problems accure when using this patchset with reiser4, then it is out of my hands as I can't debug reiser4 problems.

Hi !
Thanks for your patchset, but this is the first time i see this warning:
INSTALL sound/core/snd-rtctimer.ko
INSTALL sound/core/snd-timer.ko
INSTALL sound/core/snd.ko
INSTALL sound/pci/ac97/snd-ac97-codec.ko
INSTALL sound/pci/snd-ens1371.ko
INSTALL sound/pci/snd-intel8x0.ko
INSTALL sound/soundcore.ko
if [ -r System.map ]; then /sbin/depmod -ae -F System.map 2.6.11.6-dark1; fi
WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.11.6-dark1/kernel/net/sunrpc/sunrpc.ko needs unknown symbol obsd_get_random_long
any idea ?
[Edit]
-> some problems with NFS file system/server support, after disabling NFS, the warning is gone

I don't have those warnings here, but I don't use NFS. those are directly related to the obsd_netrand patch..... so I'll reverse that in the next release I guess.......

It'd be a lot easier to differentiate between dark releases if you just used 2.6.11-darkX and rolled in the 2.6.11.v patches into it.

For me its more helpfull to just release them on top of a kernel release (e.g 2.6.11.6). This helps me keep track of things and tells me which is which.

Update 1 released
Changes:
Reversed OpenBSD-Netrand.
http://www.dcaf-security.org/dark-update1.diff
All updates will be announced here as I release them, updates are small problem fixes with no new features... those will be in a new release. Keep this in mind.

Well, I've release a cleanup of config-nr-tty-devices. It basicly removes the if statement and replaces it with a Kconfig range instead. Also, apparently somewhere since the last diffing of config-nr-tty-devices and now, tty device numbers have become exact, so now entering 11 no longer creates 12 nodes in /dev. I made sure the numbers where correct by uping the minimum number to 12, note that going below 11 means you could run out of terminals, which isn't fun.
config-nr-tty-devices-r1: http://www.dcaf-security.org/config-nr-tty-devices-r1.patch

Extremly nice patchset. I'm using it right now and everything is running as smooth as possible.
The reiser4 patch also works well.
Great work!  .

Its good too know the reiser4 patch actually works because it wasn't actually tested at all. I will be releasing 2.6.11.6-dark2 sometime soon. It will feature the SKGE network driver (sk98lin replacement) and my cleaned up version of config-nr-tty-devices.

Cant wait to compile the new patchset.

I've decided to refuse to include fbsplash, for the fact that its merely eye-candy and has no practical long term advantage. I personally see no need in eye-candy or things of this sort, so this is why I don't include fbsplash.
