Hi Zoran,

please stop sending HTML emails. Your mails are often very hard to
view. Especially the quotations are completely messed up by your MUA
when you play with the font settings.

No, it's about the flash chip's own registers not the PCH.

You can't work around a broken driver without a working driver. But if
they at least didn't compile the driver into the kernel but a module,
you can blacklist that module and everything should be fine.

Afaik it's possible to configure mail-servers so they automatically
reject HTML-Mails or transcode them to txt.
Beside that you often can configure it so it doesn't send E-Mails to
people who're subscribed to the list, if they're also in CC.

Maybe reconfiguring coreboot's mailserver would be a good idea :)
My 2 ct.
