Hi!.
I think there must be a problem in 2.4.1-pre11 regarding the disk
scheduling. Although it is suggested that hdparm is not a valid program
for benchmark purposes, I think that the different behaviour of hdparm
in 2.2.19pre7 and 2.4.1-pre11 has nothing to do with hdparm itself.
In 2.2.19pre7,

This is a followup question to my previous question
"Why isn't init at PID 1."
Previoulsy I was calling init from within linuxrc.
Linuxrc was a sash script, so the sash script
supposedly had PID 1. Now I've removed the script and
have a C program for linuxrc.
I'm still not running at PID 1 but

Lots of stuff assumes that PID 0 is the idle task, and that PID 1 is init.
For example, the kernel disallows ptraceing of init, based on its pid of 1.

Since using kernel 2.4.0 and 2.4.1 I have been having very weird problems
with my network. Suddenly the network connection drops and dies until I
take down the interface, and then successfully ping a machine. This is the
only thing that I can get out of syslog that is relevant:

I accidentally built my 2.4.1 kernel with /devfs so had a interesting
few minutes looking round it to see what it was doing.
The thing that struck me most was the spelling of disc with a 'c'. As
an Englishman this is the correct spelling for me most of the time,
but I have come to accept "as a t
Do maestro and acpi share an interrupt on your machine?
If so, is maestro's ISR ever getting called? Is ACPI's ISR
(drivers/acpi/events/evsci.c acpi_ev_sci_handler()) getting called and
reporting them handled when it shouldn't?
Thanks -- Regards -- Andy

If it's any consolation from (this American) I'm glad it's 'disc' (always
thought that 'disk' was just for those marketing dweebs who couldn't spell
right
in the first place).

It doesn't work.
I wrote the code and asked people to test it.
So many BIOS quirks.

Hi!
ACPI on satellite 4030cdt fails to see system battery... I traced it a
little bit, and found that

A FAQ.

Hi,
Quick bug report for kernel 2.4.1. There needs to be a
EXPORT_SYMBOL(name_to_kdev_t); at the bottom of linux/init/main.c.
name_to_kdev_t is used by the md driver (and maybe others). If the
driver is built as a module it won't load due to the missing symbol.

My first comment is that this looks very heavyweight indeed. Isn't it
just over-engineered?
We _do_ need the ability to stack completion events, but as far as the

Sure the box is really dead? These very cheap cards with just the bt848

Here's an improved timer interface as suggested by Rusty and elaborated
by me. It turned out that the original problem I set out to solve was
already solved (and this approach would not have solved it anyway) but
there is a compelling reason for taking this seriously: there are four
