I'm rather confused at the moment. Does this kernel contain the new
Virtual Memory manager from Andrea Archangeli or does it use the
original VM that was present in the older 2.4.x releases?
I know that I could not get the IP-Noise kernel module to run on the AA
VM, while it ran on the old VM flawlessly.
