I cannot answer questions about Linux -- I merely summarize the kernel
patches after reading them. I try to make them useful to everyone,
but kernel hackers should take them with a grain of salt and read the
patches themselves. The patch file is patch34.gz
- Consolidate the S3 support in the bootloader.
- Switch to release 2.4 of SoundBlaster Pro CD-ROM driver. Use
different names for device registering.
- Fixed a bug in the way the Cabletron E2100 shared memory registers
were set.
- Change the global that ptrace uses to get its list of vm areas.
- Change the memory mapper for the swap cache.
- The boot loader does something different depending on whether the
kernel image is compressed or not.
