Howdy... I came home to find my workstation thrashing - errors are appended to this message. Kerneld was consuming over 50meg of memory, so I bounced it, which seems to have cleared the problem up.
Overmind is a P90, 2.0.32 and is fairly well synced with Hamm. Modutils is 2.1.55-4. Current uptime is almost 13 days. The machine was idle at the time. I've been unsubscribed from linux-kernel since before 2.0.32 came out, so I don't know if this problem has been discussed over there. I just resubscribed.
