Hi
I've experienced some problems with 2.1.63. Mainly they were related to disk performance and dcache trouble. Didn't have the time to look at'em to thoroughly.
I got this at the syslog
Nov 13 20:42:53 jovian kernel: d_alloc: 625 unused, pruning dcache Nov 13 20:42:54 jovian last message repeated 12 times Nov 13 20:42:54 jovian kernel: d_alloc: 626 unused, pruning dcache Nov 13 20:42:54 jovian kernel: d_alloc: 625 unused, pruning dcache Nov 13 20:42:55 jovian last message repeated 6 times
It repeated whenever I accessed the disk in large chunks (load emacs, X ...).
F00F fix worked like a charm.
My sys (now using 2.1.55):
processor : 0 cpu : 586 model : Pentium 75+ vendor_id : GenuineIntel stepping : 11 fdiv_bug : no hlt_bug : no sep_bug : no fpu : yes fpu_exception : yes cpuid : yes wp : yes flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr mce cx8 bogomips : 53.25
