Tolunay,
	May I suggest that after you are done testing the kernel changes that you 
post a patch for inclusion to the linuxppc-2.4 tree onto the ppc dev mailing 
list. I agree the number of PPC trees, and their, relevance on a given day is 
hard to follow, but hopefully the linuxppc-2.4 tree can stay for a while. The 
only way to get changes into this tree though is for someone to test and 
incorporate them. It is tough, I know. I am still trying to get things into 
the 2.4 kernel, but that is the way of the kernel. If no one puts a little 
sweat to get it included, then it will never get included. Just my 2 cents
Thanks
Brian
