Applied http://thunk.org/tytso/linux/extfs-2.4-update/extfs-update-2.4.21rc5 to 2.4.21-pre5-ac1, which also has linux-abi-2.4.18.0 and lm_sensors applied to it. I first undid the previous htree and fix patches. The result was a system that went slower and slower and eventually took several minutes to redraw X and finally died. Wouldn't even respond to networking from other systems. Turned computer of and on and it happened two more times. Went back to previous kernel, no problems. Don't see anything from syslog (except annoying 'VFS: brelse: Trying to free free buffer' which has been there seemingly forever). When I tried the previous htree patches, had problems with Orlov applied. Haven't tried removing Orlov this time. Willing to try things in off times, or give more info about system if requested. _______________________________________________ Ext3-users@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/ext3-users
