We should probably CONFIG_REISERFS_FS_XATTR , although I'd suggest you
use another filesystem (ext3,jfs,xfs) if you use xattrs.  The reiserfs
xattr implementation is not very mature and causes problems much more
often than the others.

Severity: wishlist

I would like CONFIG_REISERFS_FS_XATTR to be enabled so that the beagle
desktop search and indexing daemon is faster. Also, when 2.6.13 is
uploaded, be sure to enable inotify support, at least on i486.
