Description Eric Johanson 2003-04-08 03:06:32 UTC
There are bluetooth patches up here:

http://www.holtmann.org/linux/kernel/

.. which are required to make most bluetooth devices work under 2.4.20.  They
patch cleanly on gentoosources 2.4.20-r2 (well, they do fail to update the
'extraversion' field in the root Makefile, but that's pretty pointless). 

It would be very cool if a gentoo-kernel source included this patch.  It
shouldn't impact any non-bluetooth users.  :) 

Reproducible: Always
