Do you perhaps have a kernel compiled without CONFIG_HIGHPTE? Normally __pte_alloc should be able to allocate highmem unless that option is not set. Before HIGHPTE was implemented running out of low memory due to page tables was pretty common. BTW the ultimate fix for most lowmem problems is to go 64bit -Andi -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
