Linux 2.0.27 Patch - patch-2.0.27.gz




In the 2.0.x series, the largest diff is the smbfs update. This one should
fix a lot of race conditions found with the new users of 2.0.x, hopefully
it's stable. The patches also fix the Teles ISDN driver compilation
problem and update a few SCSI drivers a bit.

Check it out, send me comments, and dance joyously in the streets,
