Another observation wrt. behaviour with 'noapic'...
When streaming time-critical data over the network (running esound to another
server, etc), sometimes there are hiccups in the stream. These hiccups seem to
be much less frequent, if at all present, when running with 'noapic'. I'm

Ok, culprit identified: /var/spool/lpd/lpd.lock
On another partition I had the same problem with httpd's
error_log.
Since both of those seem to be log- and lock-files, maybe
there's something wrong with file locking?

Hi,
I have been trying out 2.4.0-ac6, and the RedHat 6.1 init scripts really don't like
it. (They liked 2.4.0-ac3 OK.) The visible symptom is that rc.sysinit now hangs,
waiting for me to press 'i'. Once I do, it successfully hands over to the correct
runlevel script, and I can go back to

Why do the input handlers depend on CONFIG_USB_HID? On PPC we already have
trouble with them depending on CONFIG_USB,
The existing CONFIG_WP_WORKS_OK can be used to exclude
verify_write from being built into kernels for 486 and

fh->data is an array of characters, thus without any alignment

'struct knfsd' begins with a pointer, thus it must be 4 or 8 byte

a new version against recent 2.4 kernels of my multimedia-lowlatency
patchset is now available. These patches are the 2.4-adapted versions of
my 2.2 lowlatency patch, which project has now reached an age of 1.5+
years.
the lowlatency patch against 2.4.0-ac6 can also be found at:

After upgrading from -test11 to 2.4.0, I find that under heavy network

no: the only entities involved with udma crc's are the drive,
the controller (and the cable). the kernel is not involved in any way
(except to configure udma, of course.)

Hi,
I have a Digital HiNote VP.
PCMCIA's works fine with Kernel 2.4.0 test12 (I think that I cannot change
pcmcia card with the computer running because the new PCMCIA is not
detected).
With Kernel 2.4.0 and the same .config PCMCIA don't work. It is detected

Hi!
I just wanted to let you know that I successfully ruined
a CD with 2.4.0 + sym-2.1.0-20001230. The system is a RH 7.0
with glibc-2.2-9, cdrecord-1.9.
When will it be really usable?

I suppose it might be worthwhile to search the kernel sources for other
instances of printk("%c"), there's no telling when all distributions will be
up to date with new sysklogd releases...

I have recently started using DMA mode on my harddisk. However, I
occasionally (not often/constant, but sometimes) get CRC errors:
