Comment 2 Ronald Pacheco 2008-01-29 17:58:25 UTC
Note: Hardware is in-house.  Goeff has it set up in his cube.

Comment 3 Geoff Gustafson 2008-02-08 22:40:36 UTC
Verified the patch on Tolapai with -68.EL kernel, but it requires base Tolapai
patch which I don't own so I'm not posting to rhkernel right now. Need to follow
up with Jeff Garzik who owns it, and get it reassigned, or wait.


Comment 4 Geoff Gustafson 2008-03-05 19:43:46 UTC
Actually I tested with -68.10.EL kernel. Rebuilt with latest -68.18.EL and
posted to rhkernel.

Comment 6 Vivek Goyal 2008-03-11 23:51:50 UTC
Committed in 68.20.EL . RPMS are available at http://people.redhat.com/vgoyal/rhel4/

Comment 8 Don Domingo 2008-05-15 00:09:37 UTC
added to RHEL4.7 Driver Updates:

Comment 10 Don Domingo 2008-06-02 23:13:48 UTC
Hi,

the RHEL4.7 release notes deadline is on June 17, 2008 (Tuesday). they will
undergo a final proofread before being dropped to translation, at which point no
further additions or revisions will be entertained.

a mockup of the RHEL4.7 release notes can be viewed here:
http://intranet.corp.redhat.com/ic/intranet/RHEL4u7relnotesmockup.html

please use the aforementioned link to verify if your bugzilla is already in the
release notes (if it needs to be). each item in the release notes contains a
link to its original bug; as such, you can search through the release notes by
bug number.

Cheers,
Don
