Re: [Freeipmi-devel] ipmi_ctx_find_inband: device already open

[Albert Chu]

Hi Kenneth,

If you could try the patch w/o those modules installed I'd appreciate
it.  In the function, I "probe" looking for an interface to do inband
IPMI with.  The below gets around the problem by finding an interface
earlier in the probe, so the bug is never reached, but it's still there.

Thanks,
Al
