I applied this patch and checked off CONFIG_LOWLAT and CONFIG_LOWLAT_SYSCTL, but I don't see a /proc/sys/kernel/lowlatency as mentioned here: http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/schedlat.html#downloads I'm running 2.4.20-benh1, do I need to make this or something? Is there any other way to determine if I've applied the patch successfully? -Brett
