Re: SunBlade 2500 & XVR1200
Hi Josip,
I'm sorry to bother you.
I've find out and downloaded the patch to fix my trouble with XVR 1200
on Lenny, but I'm new on Debian (some years on Solaris, but no
experience on Linux Debian) and I need your help to apply this patch
to the system or a link to some doc to follow the best procedure to
update to the most update kernel.
Thanks,
Maurizio
