Thanks, Paul, that's a great idea!
The approach I'm testing right now just does a module_get(mod), which
is released when you manually disable the module by echoing it's name
into /sys/kernel/security/stacker/unload, so that must be done before
you can rmmod. This way no refcounting is actually
if there is any chance of getting along without ACPI entries that is best.
Linux did do this once already, for SMP K8: K8 can boot and run NUMA
without an SRAT table. What more is needed for dual core, and could Linux
support in this area be extended?

bummer. What the BIOS vendors are doing (to lock in proprietary BIOS, some

That's pretty hard because there are a lot of block drivers.

Right, of course. Otherwise it won't sum up to 512 bytes.

Someone mentioned that NUMA support for dual core opteron need acpi
support in LinuxBIOS.
there may be some other solution for that.
1. PowerPC already support dual core and it should support NUMA, So
the Open Firmware must have some NUMA entry definition.
Can we make x86-64 kernel support

I use a Belkin F5D6020 wifi card, (version one), and a belkin f5d6000 pci
adapter for it. A while ago, it was working flawlessly, though I
didn't use it that much after the wife's laptop died.
I've rolled through some kernel upgrades... and it appears my wifi does not
work anymore.
here's the

This is actually the accumulation of everything we've been saving for
2.6.12, but I was away for a bit and missed 2.6.12 when it came out ...

If you _only_ want to sleep for 20ms, it doesn't buy you anything.
But the sleep is often part of a bigger picture, where the 20ms might be
