You could force it on using apr_cv_epoll=yes ./configure and such, but ugh and eww. Debian does have a minimum kernel version that's supported, and for Etch (the previous release), that was «anything 2.6». I don't know if there is a tighter supported version for the current and next release, and even if it is, it doesn't change the principle we're discussing here. -- Tollef Fog Heen UNIX is user friendly, it's just picky about who its friends are
