We cannot merge a kernel change which requires a userspace upgrade to get the X server working again. You can do it the other way: make the X server work by default (my patch) then, in your upgraded userspace, set /proc/sys/kernel/mmap_min_addr to 65536. Repeat: I think you should have used /proc/sys/vm/ for that tunable. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
