Hi,
I started a compile of kernel test9-final on a virtual console.

Then I started X on another one. Initial windows showed up fine.
But mouse was stuck. Tried magic - nothing. (early in compile,
should not be at modules_install for a long time)

Yes, but they don't do it with 7 separate processes (or "address
spaces" to use the 390 terminology). They have a few processes/address
spaces
UML has HZ == 20. When I built test9, I ran into trouble with this new block

# define SHIFT_HZ 5
#elif HZ >= 48 && HZ < 96

Hi!
since at least 2.4.0-test5 (the oldest kernel I have around) floppy support
is broken on alpha.
If I e.g. do

I get all sorts of weird stuff (parts of libc, directory contents, other
binary data) but not the floppy's real contents. Mounting of floppies also
doesn't work.

So, when a vendor has to add a new driver, especially with the new-style
makefiles, you have a one-line patch to a makefile, a one-line patch to
a Config.in, and a patch which adds the driver to the tree.
It would make adding new drivers to vendor kernel packages a whole lot
easier and more

Yes, make mrproper and compile again.

Hi all,
My Xircom RBEM56G-100 almost completely stops working in the latest test9-pre8
and pre9 versions. It will still get an IP address via DHCP, but that's it, no
pings or anything.
It works mostly correctly with test8 (quits responding when leaving promisuous
mode, and seems to hang under
Hi,
I noticed the following change in the test9pre9 and doubt if it is
correct. Especially as Alan Cox rejected *identical* change for 2.2
arguing that in may break some architectures with non-byte based memory
addressing (especially ARM).

Serving modutils and ksymoops is too much traffic for my 56K link.
With immediate effect, I have removed modutils and ksymoops from
ftp.ocs.com.au. These tools can be obtained from any kernel.org
mirror, they have been on kernel.org since January.
Hi Petkan,
Thanks for your comment.

They're lockups allright. I went over the VM code and buffer.c
today and found a whole bunch of rescheduling points where the
kernel can call schedule() while current->state !=
I'm experiencing what appears to be lockups, but probably not. I'm
