Re: [Xen-devel] xen unstable tree hasn't new changes for weeks

Hi Keir,

  thanks so much for updating the
unstable trees!

I am trying to build the Linux tree
(cs 147) and when CONFIG_ACPI_PV_SLEEP is set to 'y' it has some missing
symbols due  to sleep-xen not being built and a few files connected
to that. My quick fix was this here:

diff -r 88a17da7f336 drivers/acpi/Kconfig
--- a/drivers/acpi/Kconfig            
    Thu Jul 26 16:36:52 2007 +0100
+++ b/drivers/acpi/Kconfig            
    Fri Jul 27 10:23:43 2007 -0400
@@ -366,7 +366,7 @@ config ACPI_PV_SLEEP
 config ACPI_PV_SLEEP
                  bool
                  depends
on X86 && XEN
-                
default y
+                
default n
 endif                
# ACPI
 
 endmenu

It kept on re-enabling itself even if
I set this option to 'is not set' in the .config file.

Otherwise you are doing a great job!
:-)
