Interesting.  I reverted back to the "OPTIONS=AUTOMATIC" and I no longer get 
the X Server error with the openafs kernel module installed.  I do have plenty 
of RAM, though: about 1.25GB (with almost a GB free).

The settings mentioned earlier cause no such problems on my Hardy machines, 
though-- I have a laptop still running it with those settings right now, in 
fact.

Thanks very much for the help!  If I have some time this weekend, I'll play 
around with the settings some more and see if switching I can verify which one 
of them was causing the error.

Thanks!
Karl

It was probably me that suggested that.  I run several machines that
way.  Does it not work for you?

How much RAM do you have on this machine though?  The -blocks 65536
requires 64MB of memory (possibly a continuous chunk.)

Or, switch to the on-disk cache and see if the problem goes away.
