ia64, alpha and other architectures have configureable page size, which is IIRC, a kernel compile time constant. If X is built to expect a specific pagesize on a given arch, it will break if the user changes their kernel's pagesize. The X server already tries to handle this all over, but from time to time glitches like this one are found. ia32 has a fixed 4k pagesize (not counting large pages of course), and so this patch does nothing on ia32. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by Black Hat Briefings & Training.
