Linux 2.4.19-rmk7-ads4
This version- Includes a fix (in the rmk7 patch) for a ptrace security bug.
- Fixes a problem with AC97 audio (on the Bitsy Plus and Advanced Graphics Client) where the output was momentarily inaudible when beginning to play a sound.
- Fixes problems found in the previous release (Linux 2.4.19-rmk6.ads3) that affected:
1) booting on a GraphicsClient Plus with a boot loader older than Ver 4.0,
2) using PCMCIA and CF cards after waking from sleep, and
3) using ADSmartIO on a GraphicsMaster.
- Adds the capability to wake from sleep after a user specified period of time.
- Includes an update for the UCB1200 audio driver provided by Thomas Thaele.
- Supports new command line parameters for PCMCIA and CF that allow:
1) the default timing to be specified and
2) the voltage requested by the card to be overridden.
- Adds PS2 mouse support in the standard GraphicsMaster configuration.
