Subject:   kernel modifications --- where should i send them?
Message-ID:  <19990316125806.A22360@fisicc-ufm.edu>

in order to make sane (scanners you know) work with an umax
scanner and an adaptec scsi card i had to modify a file in the
kernel (3.1-RELEASE) to raise the default raw i/o transfer size

where should i report this? should i use the send-pr utility?
i don't know if this is a "bug", maybe there's a reason not to
set it too high...

the file was
/usr/src/i386/include/param.h

and the change was

#include DFLTPHYS (64 * 1024)

to

#include DFLTPHYS (128 * 1024)

after which the scanner works fine.

thanks,

-oscar
