Hi,
I'm running kernel 2.4.0 on Redhat 7.0. I tried to get direct
rendering running (it failed, but that's another story). Today I
noticed something strange in /proc: dri appears there 4 times.

Hi,
2.4.0ac9 still kills the mouse on this machine. dmesg is attached.
Something I find interesting is that the PCMCIA bridge is on IRQ12.
We can't change the mouse or the PCMCIA bridges' interrupt.
I'll be happy to provide additional info.
Regards,

I get this message when logging into a box via ssh.
the box is running 2.4 Kernel with devfsd installed on debian potato.
I have a *hunch* that this may be to do with devfsd, and the fact that devfsd
is not creating the /dev/pts/x files correctly (or in a timely manner)
to prove this, I check
When running 'quotaon -a' I get message 'quotaon: using /quota.user on

Hi all,

ALWAYS happens. Usually after this the system is frozen (
