It's enabled, but diasbling it didn't seem to make a difference either. FWIW, http://penguinppc.org/~daenzer/config-2.6.5-rc2-ben0-ck1 is my current, preempt-less config. Note that I'm not sure how tightly the problems are tied to swap; after they start, they seem to persist even when swap is no longer used. It's just the best criterion I've been able to identify so far. -- Earthling Michel Dänzer | Debian (powerpc), X and DRI developer Libre software enthusiast | http://svcs.affero.net/rm.php?r=daenzer
