Dear Developers,
This might be a known issue but it is not known to me!
I tried to compile kernel 2.4.22 under Crux Linux,

I guess that it would compile nicely with gcc-3.3.X.

Hi,
usually the device IDs are given in hex. This one is a bit strange: it is
without 0x in the first place and used with it some lines later. I suspect the
first one to be the wrong. Patch attached.

Anyway, if you buy a brand new server, you will find it difficult to get
a 32 bit architecture.
What I don't understand is why you want it to go into tmpfs, why don't
you let the pagecache do its job of putting the data in RAM where it is
needed ?

Yes right, I was just not aware recent hardware (still) supports that. I

inetd. The server employs a very simple SIGCHLD handler that loops on

The patch to fix "setitimer timer expires too early" is causing issues for
the Helix server. We have a timer processs that updates the server's
timestamp on an itimer and it expects the signal to be delivered at roughly
the interval retrieved from getitimer. This is very consistent on every

Really? I thought it was good to leave some memory free to speed up
application startup, so we don't have to evict
This adds support for reading ADCs (etc), neccessary to operate touch

Hi all,
Sorry for sending this issue to your attention again, but I got no answers and
I thought it could be because of my bad subject message.
I'm having little hangs while booting with kernels 2.6.12 and 2.6.13-rc1, rc2
