empeg_readtherm() bug + fix

empeg_readtherm() bug + fix - 02/11/2001 08:41

The empeg_readtherm() kernel routine locks up the machine under certain circumstances. This is due to it just barely missing a timer rollover in a wait-loop that uses bne to wait for an event to expire. Changing the bne to a blt fixes the problem.

Patch attached.

Now here is a user busting his arse to be part of the alpha-team! Not only reports the bugs, but provides the fix too!!! I cant speak to the validity of the fix, but I am impressed.

Side note -Kudos on the menu hack. I am a few versions back, but I have been enjoying it immensely.

Thanks,
