The current known problems (to me) that I consider important can be seen at: www.vlakno.cz/~rdivacky/problems These days I am trying to use some nice patches from PRs which could help a little. I created a new p4 branch to try out various fixes so hopefully things will move on. please tell me what other serious problems are you aware of with regard to Linux 2.6. and as usually testing is more than welcome ;) thnx Roman Divacky
