Description Erik 2004-11-26 07:27:48 UTC

I got an error message from fgrep when the pcmcia service was stopped. That was because the script assumed that the kernel was built with module support. I made a small patch to avoid the error. I would appreciate if it (or something functionally equivalent) was integrated into the distribution.
