There was a small bug that required a simple fix. I listed the patch under Ethernet, but now I'm wondering if I should have listed it under "Patches and Contributions"? Am I following the correct procedures to get this patch into the CVS tree? How long does it usually take to get a change into CVS? The reason I ask is that I'm planning a REDBOOT rhine package for IA32. I already have it working my office. I just wanted to see how my simple Rhine patch worked out before submitting a REDBOOT rhine package. Ultimately, I want to release a new Via Velocity (Gigabit) ethernet driver for eCos. So, I'm getting my feet wet with some small changes first. Thanks in advance, Stephen -- Stephen Polkowski Centaur Technology VIA Technologies, Inc
