Dell 4300 + megaraid

Our Dell 4300, plus raid card, works okay with a 2.2.14 kernel, which has a version 107 megaraid.o module. This is many versions behind the version present in 2.4.3. More recent driver modules for the card hand on booting, thus this problem report. The module source does not indicate a recent

Re: bidirectional named pipe?

According to the Understanding the Linux Kernel book I plowed through yesterday afternoon the EXT2 file system has a defined file type "socket," distinct from fifo. How does one set up a named socket in a file system? Is it a legacy constant that has never been supported or what?

Re: Is sendfile all that sexy?

This makes me wonder... If the kernel only kept a queue of the three smallest unused fd's, and when the queue emptied handed out whatever it liked, how many things would break? I suspect this would cover a lot of bases... regards, David -- David L. Parsley Network Admini
