What version of the preempt patch are you using? I believe this has been fixed in recent versions, my only remaining program spewing out this problem on exit being nfsd. Or maybe it was fixed in a later version of coreutils (since I sync with Sid). I also recommend using Con Kolivas' patch sets. They're pretty well-made, IMO, and I use -ck14 now on two workstations, one with ext3 and the other with XFS. Just avoid the compressed cache patch on systems with either ext2/ext3 or FAT. Check them out at <http://kernel.kolivas.net/>. Good luck. --> Jijo -- Federico Sevilla III : http://jijo.free.net.ph : When we speak of free Network Administrator : The Leather Collection, Inc. : software we refer to GnuPG Key ID : 0x93B746BE : freedom, not price. _ Philippine Linux Users Group.
