100.14.11 for 2.6.21 kernel (GPL issue again)

Do we have patch for this one as for the previous versions.

Testing system : linux-image-2.6.21-1-686 (2.6.21-4) - Debian Unstable

If I understand correctly, this will be fixed with 2.6.22.
2.6.22-rc5 is entering in experimental this week or the next week, as soon as I can try it, i'll report you if it works or not.

[PATCH] i386: PARAVIRT: Export paravirt_ops for non GPL modules too

Otherwise non GPL modules cannot even do basic operations
like disabling interrupts anymore, which would be excessive.

Longer term should split the single structure up into
internal and external symbols and not export the internal
ones at all.

Hi bucky,
Haven't seen that a new release is there again. While waiting for the 2.6.22 kernel feel free to download the new patched version as always on http://grizach.servebeer.com/nvpatch/
