The slow speed could have something to do with the line you comment
out. I haven't examined the code, but it's possible that pointer might
have 'noisy' data on it if it's not nulled.

Nor have I, and it'll be a few weeks before I do. I'm currently
downloading Slackware 13.1 (which is taking forever on dialup), and
I'll try the 2.6.34 kernel a couple of weeks after I've upgraded.

Which, hopefully, won't be until Ubuntu 10.10.
