Thanks. The program runs fine, it climbs up until 8192. This confirmed a hunch I had. The problem only manifests itself when the lower idr numbers aren't actually being used. The thread http://www.redhat.com/archives/dm-devel/2004-July/msg00003.html seems somewhat related to this problem, but it suggests that this was fixed in 2.6.7. -- John McCutchan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - 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/
