Mike,
there are docs named HOWTO-. There is also
one about boot/root disks.
I recommend you to boot from redhat instalation CD
and after launch pres Alt-F2 (or F3,4... a can't remember)
to get into free console with bash prompt.
Then mount your hacked(TM) disk and try to repair.

sys_poll spends around 1/2 of the execution time allocating / freeing a
few bytes temporary memory.
The attached patch tries to avoid these allocation by using the stack -
usually only a few bytes are needed, kmalloc is used for the rest.

You have to take a look at ENC:
Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN) allows routers to notify
clients about network congestion, resulting in fewer dropped packets
and increased network performance. This option adds ECN support to the
Linux kernel, as well as a sysctl (/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_ecn
Try typing "echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_ecn" at a shell to
disable TPC ECN support.

Here's the latest version of the patch, against 2.4.0. The

Of cource he doesn't have to do that. It is just ni
Hi,
I have an ENSONIQ SoundScape PNP sound card, and I am noticing
problems with it under linux-2.4.0-prerelease and linux-2.4.0. I have
created 2 diffs which solve the most pressing problem (and sort a few
messages out), but the driver seems to have deeper issues which I

That sounds like the mixer calls sscape code and there is a locking error
somewhere that s
Of course 2.4.0 runs on m68k as well :-)
Sorry, no real changes since last release, but I wanted to get something out of
the door as soon as possible. Today is my last holiday, so my Linux development
efforts will be much smaller next week. Someone to take over again?
The patch is quite short.

In other words, there's no longer any such thing as a "stable" branch. The
whole point of having separate production and development branches was to have
one in which each succeeding patch could be counted upon to be more reliable
than the last. If new development is going into the "stable" ke

By your personal definition of stable 2.0.3x is the current
Hi,
here is a TODO list for the memory management area of the
Linux kernel, with both trivial things that could be done
for later 2.4 releases and more complex things that really
have to be 2.5 things.
Most of these can be found on http://linux24.sourceforge.net/ too
Trivial stuff:
* VM: better
Sun Ultra1, RH 6.2 + updates (+ local hacks).
Building vmlinux:
In arch/sparc64/kernel:
sys_sparc32.c: In function `sys32_quotactl':
sys_sparc32.c:907: storage size of `d' isn't known
sys_sparc32.c:907: warning: unused variable `d'
Building modules:
In drivers/sbus/audio:
amd7930.c:
Here is a patch that changes the superuser check in lp to use
capabilities instead.
Does anyone see a problem with it before I send it to Linus?

Patch from [EMAI
Every SPARC/Solaris machine completely ignores every TCP/SYN segment sourced
from my linux 2.4.0 machine. Is it problem of kernel or missconfiguration? Or
does Solaris something wrong?
I have used the kgcc (egcs-2.91.66) on my Red Hat 7.0 linux box for compiling
the 2.4.0 kernel.

Linus, here is a patch from Adam J. Richter to add the tiny kernel
hook for device-id based parport device driver module loading, as well
as an example usage in lp.c. (The code for making use of it is already
in modutils.)

Hi All !
I am installing Redhat 7.0 on my DNS/mail server. Is there any problem
with Redhat 7.0 you faced or any bug in Redhat 7.0.
