Re: "4gb seg fixup, process X" on FC6 dom0

Thanks for responding, Askar.  I saw that thread, and those fixes
are not working for me.  My system already had the nosegneg file in
/etc/ld.so.conf.d (it was installed there along with the kernel, so that
issue has been fixed in the sources), and ldconfig shows that the system
knows about it:

# ldconfig -N -X -p | grep libc.so
    libc.so.6 (libc6, hwcap: 0x0018000000000000, OS ABI: Linux 2.6.9) => /lib/i686/nosegneg/libc.so.6
    libc.so.6 (libc6, OS ABI: Linux 2.6.9) => /lib/libc.so.6

The messages are coming from non-mono processes, so that's not it either.

Perhaps a problem with dual cpu being used with Xen and FC6?

Is there anyone else out there running Xen and FC6 on a Core 2 Duo who
can report not having this problem?
