This is pretty much a vanilla kernel, with just one patch to work
around a deadlock problem in the reiserfs_file_write code that I
think isn't fixed.
http://lists.linuxcoding.com/kernel/2006-q1/msg32508.html
So that sounds like a reiserfs bug.
Yes, and it was definitely there still in
I've just been reviewing these patches and have spotted a possible
error in the file arch/ia64/kernel/time.c in that the scope of the
#ifdef on CONFIG_TIME_INTERPOLATION seems to have grown quite a lot
since 2.2.23-rc1-rt7. It used to chop out one if statement and now it
chops out half the file.

When dumping vma information the pagemap_read routine calculates
the minimum of what the user asks for and the end of the vma.
Unfortunately the code uses vma->vm_start rather than vma->vm_end
which can result in the end address being before the start, and
a nasty never-ending loop in the kernel.

Lguest drivers need to default to "Y" otherwise they're never selected
for new builds. (We don't bother prompting, because they're less than
4k combined, and implied by selecting lguest support).

The cron job that is running every 10 min on my system is mpop (a

The fact that these simple cron jobs don't finish ever is certainly because of
