Hi Keith, Everyone,

I have been using kdb in linux-2.5 kernels doing the quick
hacks necessary to make kdb work with recent kernels.  I just
upgraded to kdb-4.1 and linux-2.5.68.  I hope that others may
find this work useful so I'm making a patch available here:
	
	http://www.ccur.com/realtime/oss/

The patch is based on the SGI patches (kdb-v4.1-2.4.20-common-1,
and kdb-v4.1-2.4.20-i386-1).  It is a single patch which
can be applied to a standard linux-2.5.68 kernel.

I'm still working on a few issues.  The following features are
not working:
     -	Input of symbol names for modules.
     -	Symbol name completion.
     -	Module and section related commands.
     -	Kill command.


Keith, I hope that you will release an offical kdb for 2.5 kernels.
Let me know if there is anything I can do to help.
