The following patch addresses a serious problem with older Rage 128

Hello,
Writing to an software RAID 0 containing 4 SCSI discs is very fast.
I get transfer rates of about 100 MBytes/s. The filesystem on the RAID

but gives low transfer rates of about 31 MBytes/s

You are mistaken. The existence of a device is unrekated to the name
someone uses to access it. You may well use /tmp/myown
It seems the maestro3 can't DMA from mem above 256M. Thanks to
everyone who sent in bug reports that lead us to discover this..
this patch fixes that and also allocates memory at driver init time

Hi,
I am a graduate student at Univ Of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
Regarding my thesis, I need some help with running a multithreaded program on
red hat linux. I am experimenting with paging behavior. I use a machine where
swap space is large compared to available memory. I run two threads, wor
There are two parts of MOSIX that deal with file systems.
In MOSIX, every migrated process leaves a proxy at its creation (home)
node that services all system call requests, including IO calls.
What newer versions of MOSIX did is to add the "DFSA" (direct file
system access) layer that allows MOS
I've recompiled my kernel to 2.4.2 (even tried 2.4.1) and I am having
problems with pppd. The error I am getting is pppd[1491]: read: bad file

redhat 7.0) it work fine. I am using a default redhat 7.0 install.

Hi,
I have a system with an MSI-6321 motherboard with the Via 686a
southbridge, and I'm having a little trouble with the via82cxxx_audio
sound driver. The stock 2.4.2 driver produces only a rhythmic a buzzing
sound. I saw a patch here a week or two ago for 'rate locking', so I
tried that (it d
Does anyone know the status of UDF write support?
I would love to start using this, but am unsure on it's reliability.
Thanks.

8 bit register ... which seems very odd. Either I don't understand
this properly (probable ;-)) or something's wrong ... can anyone
shed some light on this for me?
It looks like we do this in arch/i386/kernel/io_apic.c (2.4.x):

I use an older pc as ISDN router (Debian potato, kernel 2.2.17pre stock

The thing has never worked properly. I suspected hardware problems and

I checked the memory with m

A small fix in dump_stats() (scsi_merge.c) invoked when (struct req)
has inconsistent number of segments. The list formed
by b_reqnext is null terminated, so the current code is
simply wrong: it can cause a oops if (req->bh) is NULL,
or it fails to print the last element in the b_reqnext chain.
