The vmalloc_start patches don't affect this problem at all. The results are identical in all of the cases: - VMALLOC_START at 0xfe600000 - VMALLOC_START reset to 0xfe300000 - VMALLOC_START set to vmalloc_start_addr (which gets set to 0xfe300000 on sun4m, and 0xfe600000 on sun4/sun4c) as in the patch I sent to the list today. ~spot --- Tom "spot" Callaway <tcallawa(a)redhat*com> LCA, RHCE Red Hat Sales Engineer || Aurora Linux Project Leader "If you are going through hell, keep going." -- Sir Winston Churchill - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe sparclinux" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
