Bug#496917: definitely present in Lenny
Hi, this bug is definitely present in up2date Lenny. I have several machines running kvm, and they all have this problem. Guests at high load get stuck and cause 100% cpu load on as many cores/cpus in the host as have been assigned to the guest virtually. Using a newer kernel like 2.6.29 in the guest didn't change anything. I didn't try 2.6.29 on the host because for some reason kvm could not assign more than 3,5 Gb RAM to a guest then, while this works with 2.6.26= =2E Regards, --=20 .''`.

Re: Raising minimum CPU requirement for i386 kernel
Hi, Bastian Blank schrieb: This means that Debian will get uninstallable on the following CPUs: - Intel i486, - Intel Pentium (MMX), - AMD K5, - AMD K6(-2, -3), Many schools are using LTSP on Debian (Edu) and have this hardware as their thinclients. Would be a shame if all those schools using free software cannot use the next release (and following) because their hardware is no longer supported. And I'm talking of really large numbers here worldwide. Regards, -- .''`.

I believe you can place override modules under: /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/updates and they will be preferred. You can also create custom search paths - see depmod.conf(5) for details. That's what I was looking for. I used a custom path and it's working perfect! Thank you very much! Best wishes, - -- .''`.

automatic loading of kernel modules
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hello, I've got a question concerning automatic loading of kernel modules. This is my scenario: I'm using kernel 2.6.18 for xen, which ships the module bnx2 for the broadcom network card. Unfortunately this driver has a bug and doesn't work in bridging mode. I have compiled the new driver from broadcom, now here's my question: How do I make sure this new module gets loaded instead of the old one? So far I've overwritten the kernel module with my own one, but that is not a nice solution. The kernel's bnx2 module is under /lib/modules/2.6.18-6-xen-amd64/kernel/drivers/net. If I place the new module (same name: bnx2) e.g. under /lib/modules/2.6.18-6-xen-amd64/kernel/drivers/misc, how do I tell the kernel to load this module instead of the old one? Kind regards, - -- .''`.
