I tested your patch (Thanks!). It worked. But..

I am using KDE 3.5.6, gentoo unstable and have a dual core AMD64 system with
1GB ram and a nvidia card (using the closed source drivers, yes I suck, but I
love playing 3d games once in a while).
I don't have interactivity
Hi list,
with cfs-v5 finally booting on my machine I have run my daily
numbercrunching jobs on both cfs-v5 and sd-0.46, 2.6.21-v7 on
top of a stock openSUSE 10.2 (X86_64). Config for both kernel
is the same except for the X boost option in cfs-v5 which on
my system didn't work (X still was @ -19;

Hi Hal,
you are correct,
with the current firmware version it will fail later.
