On main kernel list, this type of mails will not even be addressed.<br><br></div><div>I would recommend that if you really want to help OP, then suggest them with the help and not criticise people, who are really trying to help here.<br></div></div>-- <br><div class="gmail_signature">Thank you <br>Warm Regards<br>Anuz<br></div>
