Hi,
I have a problem with accessing a magneto opto drive in Linux.
Since I upgraded the kernel from 2.3 to 2.4 I can mount the MO
drive but if I try to access a file on the drive the kernel oopses...
After the kernel oops the MO can't be unmounted.
The MO is has a SCSI-2 interface and the SCSI

If copy_thread() fails (it can't happen on x86, but on other
architectures, e.g. on sparc, it's possible) do_fork() doesn't do

Hi,
I am running linux-2.4.3 on a Dell dual PIII machine with 128M memory.
After the machine runs a while, dmesg shows,
__alloc_pages: 4-order allocation failed.
__alloc_pages: 3-order allocation failed.
__alloc_pages: 4-order allocation failed.
__alloc_pages: 4-order allocation failed.
Well, for kicks, I tried setting HZ to 1024 with 2.2.19. It seemed a
little more responsive, but that could be psychosomatic. :) I did notice
that I was unable to sync my palm pilot until I set it back to 100.
YMMV. The most useful "performace" tweak for a GUI that I've come across is:
I assume there is no generic APM support for lid-close?
My BIOS (P100 DEC CTS5100 Hinote VP) has no way to do anything other
than beep, when the lid is closed, so I'm using a hack that polls the
ct65548 video chips registers to find when the BIOS turns the LCD off,
so I can do whatever.

Pavel,
We already have lid support in the latest ACPI versions (not in the official
kernel yet.) You can download this code from
http://developer.intel.com/technology/iapc/acpi/downloads.htm .
It'd be great if you could focus your testing and patches on this code base

Alternatively, use my pmeventd (previously suspendd) from my pmutils
package. You get complete control over all PM events. The daemon sets
no policy (unlike apmd).

I noticed that the big update patch for ACPI was a part of 2.4.3-ac11 (Can
remember). Now its not a part of 2.4.3-ac12. Has it been removed? I have
turned on experimental settings when running make xconfig.

Hi all!
While burning a cdrom, xcdroast 0.98alpha8 hanged up. After killing it,
the cdwriter doesn't respond to any commands and the tray door doesn't

The cdwriter isn't mounted (df output and cat /proc/mounts).
output from eject -v /dev/scd1:
eject: device name is `/dev/scd1'
Hi. kernel hackers.
I use kernel 2.4.3-ac4 with smp support
and I have found strange problem in using usb keyboard.
When I pressed CAPS, NUM, SCROLL LOCK key twice (toggle LED light on keyboard),
Keyboard and console goes hang.
but up(uni-processor)
I think all of this has been done... you should check out
the Linux Trace Toolkit.

Oops, I saw "trident" and thought video. Sorry, marcus. :)
This is what I was told (it was only needed for secondary video
devices). From that, I would expect that all video devices would
need it, just in case they happened to be the second card. Am I
missing some subtlety in some of the

That isn't necessarily the case. This code can break even with _correct_
arguments to udelay().
This is because despite
