I have tried it and ... it does not work, the page allocation failure still shows. BUT while testing it on two machines I found that it only shows on on machine.

Could it be caused by a hardware driver ? cheers tobi -- Tobi Oetiker, OETIKER+PARTNER AG, Aarweg 15 CH-4600 Olten, Switzerland http://it.oetiker.ch tobi@xxxxxxxxxx ++41 62 775 9902 / sb: -9900 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kernel-testers" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
