I've been running 2.6.37 here, with all of that new group scheduling stuff enabled, the desktop feels great and my only fuss is that kaffiene, when watching digital tv on my pcHD-3000 card, is NOT getting enough time so both the audio and the video have little 20 millisecond holes chopped in them at sub-second intervals. Not the most pleasant thing to watch. I would appreciate any suggestions on how to get such an application a higher priority. -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
