Or indeed the NGPT (Posix Threads) changes ?

If you get a chance and make a 2.4.20 with pre-empt and XFS, then I may
use that as a fallback :).
thanks,

ps - I'd make an rpm of the 2.5.x series if I knew how to, but I just
haven't figured out how to make a kernel rpm yet...

Although I haven't looked yet: I do not think so.
I provide a 2.4.19 preempt kernel on mdk club. And plan to soon
include lock-breaking (already compiled and tested). The default mdk
kernel does include a mini-lowlatency patch for the worst locks.
Perhaps I put a 2.4.20 preempt/lockbreak up, it would solve the issues
I have with xfs (preempt doesn't play nice with xfs 1.1, but does with
1.2pre3). Trouble is, al this acpi and other patches might have made
the kernel more instable, and preempt/lock break on 2.4.19 have proved
to be very stable.
