I installed the 1276_64 kernel.
Open Office works.
VMware, using vmware-any-any-90 compiles, but hangs when trying to open a virtua machine Sometimes a hang when accessing cifs shares (linux also sees old copies of files from a 2003 server share) Second marvell pci-express GigE controller on NForce4 Ultra Giabyte MB still doesn't work.

Gene,
Thanks for the early heads up on the new kernel. Except for arts maxing out my cpu, everything is running great for me.

After kernel 1275 fixed the "constant" rebooting problem on x86_64 system, I was eager to see how soon the other major problem could be fixed -- segfault when running 32 bit applications.

Since rawhide had not been updated yet, I thought I would look to see if davej had any new kernel on people.redhat.com ... sure enough, there was kernel 1276.

After downloading, I looked at the change log and it said that a fix for 32 bit applications was included. After installation and reboot I tested .. 32 bit applications now work (no segfault).

This also means that vmware-config.pl works again for those interested.

See http://people.redhat.com/davej/kernels/Fedora/
