Reading patch-2.4.2 I met a strange amount of crap in
partitions/ibm.c. It is as if the author does not know
where the kernel keeps the starting offset of a partition,
and simulates a HDIO_GETGEO ioctl from user space.
I think the following patch does the same and removes a lot
of cruft. (Warning:

Hi
We have an application that makes extensive use of vmalloc (we need
lots of large virtual contiguous buffers. The buffers don't have to be
physically contiguous).
vmalloc/vfree is very slow when the vmlist gets long.

As other posts have pointed out, if you have BAD HDMA cables, you will
experience problems. One thing I would suggest is that you
add kernel.*/dev/console to your /etc/syslog.conf so that you see
any errors resulting from the kernel code. Also I would suggest that you
open another v

CRC errors are due to faulty cables. Go buy some cables that are
good. I've had this problem and the only fix is to use better
cables. Infact, If you get really bad cables, on lets say hdc which is on
the same controller as hda, then when the kernel resets the harddrive
giving crc errors hd

Turn off ACPI and try that kernel. If that one also causes problems then it
helps a
Handle with care.. Its possible the ioremap debugging change
might remove casts that hid older problems in a few drivers

Hi,
Since running 2.4.2 I've been getting regular lockups, usually during
the boot process but occasionally during regular usage too. I've
copied down an oops by hand from the console (it seems to be always
the same oops, except ESI varies).
I wonder if it's related to ACPI and/or IDE - I seem t

Alan,
You've mentioned this before. I emailed Steve directly since I had the
same sort of problem with a trio of ethernet cards. Hardware detection
goes wacky when mixing isapnp userspace tools with the CONFIG_ISAPNP
support in the kernel. Steve told me: "I'm running debian sid, with
isapnptoo
I made iso-image from cd with

I think the problem here thought isnt the 3c509 and SB
Perhaps it's cold comfort, but I found long ago that
3c509 and SB don't mix too well, at least in Linux.
ISA devices are somewhat dumb, switching one
of the cards for a PCI version does the trick here.
SB128, SBlive work fine, or you might want to go
to a 10/100 pci ethernet card.
