I'm not sure what you mean with "that 2.2.9 hang bug", I'll check deja.com

I haven't been able to subscribe to linux-kernel for several months
(I never should have unsubscribed ;-), and vger is very slow responding to
all the mail from vger's linux-newbie-list, but I'll try subscribing again.

Btw, I did ran (via deja.com) into a post from Linus from the newsgroup
"muc.lists.linux-kernel", my ISP does not have that list yet, is it
comparable with linux-kernel ?
