As a side note, I have compiled 2.1.128 from clean source (straight from ftp.kernel.org) on a SS1. I have the same problems with the serial console as some one else did on 125 but ALL of the IO performance has more than doubled! Tape backups of the full system that use to take an hour now take 15 minutes, network speeds on the local lan have gone from 40k/sec to 110k/sec (hey it's only a SS1 :), and the ever creeping slow down after some uptime is gone. Hopefully there will be a patch soon for the serial console or it will be fixed in 129, but for now I just removed the printk that was sending the message :/ Also, I compiled the xfree86 packages under the new libc6 2.0.100. I had to hack around some with a few things so I'm not gonna upload them to Incoming, but I will make them available in my home directory on master sometime today for those that want X. -- ----- -- - -------- --------- ---- ------- ----- - - --- -------- Ben Collins <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Debian GNU/Linux UnixGroup Admin - Jordan Systems Inc.
