On my redhat 7.1 machine I have been using the 2.4.0 redhat kernel and
mounting ISO's to loop devices and it worked fine. I upgraded to a 2.4.2
kernel and now none of the ISO's will mount. They all hang when the
command is run. Are there any other known occurences of this?

My LUG has had a machine donated with a PC Chips M805LR Motherboard (info
here http://www.eurocomla.com/m805lr.htm) I have to get it working to

kernels with it since Realserver won't work with them. I am having

It isn't so much failing as it hangs. I don't know if you have used it
or not. On a startup of the realserver under a 2.2 kernel here is the
output:

Here you go. Also sorry Alan for such a goofy email earlier. Does anyone
have any ideas on the sound driver issue?

Isn't this a problem though because the messge saying that ECN was enabled
was set after ECN was enabled? Thus these people have no idea what is
going on and they probably won't know what to fi

didn't Eric say that this has stalled though? Is that not the case?

I just had one of the "3com Etherlink 10/100 PCI NIC with 3XP processor"
float accross my desk, I was wondering how much the linux kernel uses the
3xp processor for its encryption offloading and such. According to the
hype it does DES without using the CPU, does linux take advantage of that?

I thought 3com was pretty friendly to the Linux Community, was that a

Thanks to Kip for clarifying why Linux doesn't use this feature, but now I
wonder why you beleive this?

Insteresting that this thread fell into this. I just had one of those
cards that came across my desk phreak out. It was 2 days old and placed
in a win2k server. Last night it started dumping errors about firmware
and bad microcde.
Have yet to test it out on another machine, but I beleive the ca

So who wants to go ask for the source code to word then? I mean we have
Bill's word that they will give it to us.

I don't know of a proc entry that lets the user tell the VM not to cache
as much or use swap in a different manner.
