Subject: ANNC: Generic-03 Kernel/Server Pair
GENERIC 981004 (#3)
This release is a combination of a mach kernel and matching linux server.
I will upload the source code changes to the cvs server on globegate
tomorrow. It's just too slow to do something so massive without a direct
ethernet connection. :-)

Mach Kernel GENERIC-981004:
Bug fixes since GENERIC #2:
Corrects the -e flag to turn on PB1400 expansion bay support
(the previous version was mostly backwards, so -e
turned it off). This may also fix the freeze
reported on PB5300s. (dgatwood@globegate.utm.edu)
Incorporates the printf patch, which supposedly fixes
something to do with firewall logging -- change is
to mach_services. (dgatwood@globegate.utm.edu)
Support for Mouse Systems 3 button Mice (unknown origin,
by way of Amal Phadke)
vmlinux GENERIC-981004:
This server is based on linux 2.0.35-osfmach3, and incorporates
a number of patches, listed below, along with the purpose of the
patches and the contributor (to the best of my knowledge).
