Hi Alan, Hi linux-kernel, I just saw, that cat /proc/sys/fs/inode-nr gives negative values for the second part. 559 -211555 or 174805 -3 I'm using 2.4.3-ac13. I see this both on SMP and non-SMP, HIGHMEM and non-HIGHMEM, if that matters. The first value for the second example (SMP+HIGHMEM machine) also seems a bit large... exact .config or more data available, if needed. Otherwise this kernel is very stable for me, and it feels really good in interactive performance. Regards Ingo Oeser -- 10.+11.03.2001 - 3.
