Here is message that I some time ago, but it didn't appear on tux.org
archive,
I assume it got lost. I seem to have typed 'vgers' instead of 'vger' in
address. Aint' I a loser. cdrom.c seems not to be changed in pre-7, so
the
patch should work.
(I don't subscribe to list right now) (Wow, how lame I must be!)
For some reason, 2.2.0 doesn't have CROMRESET ioctl. Is it intentional?
Anyway, patch against 2.2.0-pre6 included.
Some general notes:
Many thanks to those who removed busy wait from ATAPI CDROM resetting
code.
Since opening cdrom device now fails if it contains no cd (or failed to
recognize it), eject and probably many other CDROM programs must be
upgraded.
Change.log probably should mention it.
Applying patches from 2.2.0-pre2 to 2.2.0-pre6 was pain because of new
directory scripts/ksymoops. Probably www.linuxhq.com should instruct to
create
this directory manually (as I did) or tell which version of patch to use
if
there exists one that handles it correctly

And here is another message that I sent to linux-sound list (does it
exist?)
With kernel 2.2.0 I was finaly able to use MIDI on my sound card (junk
called
SoundBooster)
To do so, I enabled CONFIG_MAD16_OLDCARD setting. Thanks to those who
made it
possible.
Some notes:
With this setting, driver supports MIDI interrupts 5,7,11 (see
linux/drivers/sound/mad16.c line arount line 786), but config suggests
values 5,7,9 or 10 with default 9
I had to patch linux/drivers/sound/sb_common.c near line 862 not to MIDI
perform
interrupt check.
Apparently I must enable CONFIG_SOUND_YM3812 as well. Could config do it
authomatically?
