RE: Page Allocation error

Hi,

This is the sound driver that ships with kernel 2.6.13. Specifically,
pxa2xx-ac97.

As an aside I want to know that despite the fact the memory is available,
the same is not allocated. I guess its 32*4 KB, and this much memory is
available.

~Abu.

what module is this, it'll need to be fixed to not do such enormous
allocations...
