Hi, I've noticed that quite a few of the patches that have gone into Linus' tree lately seem related to the x86_64 arch. Are we going to have working 64bit guest kernels in 2.6.10? (I am not even asking about skas3 for this arch, although it would be a very welcome development!)
Also, whilst we are on the 64bit subject, I can't seem to run my guests as non-root on a Gentoo64 system (but the same kernel works on a Gentoo32 system) - see log attached at the bottom. Some feedback on the patches: I have run -bb4 for a few days and have been happy with it so far... But I still prefer 2.4.28-bs1, as I have had some problems with Java and 2.6.x guests in the past.
