Sorry It's my > first patch :). I'll split it and do as written. Thanks alot :). That wasn't meant for resending. If you resend the whole series it's good to start a new thread. But if you have several related patches (usually this [PATCH N/xx] thing) it helps if you either send a 0/xx first describing the whole series or at least sending everything as reply to 1/xx. This way the mail program will help everybody by keeping this things together. Eike
