I have made as much as possible of the code MI, and have tested the new code in i386. I have also added alpha support, but I unfortunately do not have the hardware to test my changes. So, I do not even know whether it compiles, let alone whether it works as desired ;-) I would be very thankful if somebody could test my patch, so that I can proceed and try to get it in. If you try, please keep a working kernel around to avoid trouble... The patch for -CURRENT is available at http://www.tu-bs.de/~y0015675/aperture2.diff, and the release notes are at http://www.tu-bs.de/~y0015675/README.aperture Related, is there any way to cross-compile a kernel for alpha on i386 for testing purposes?
