Which says that a setting of 15 would get 32k then. I take it this (for an i386 system) is the correct file to edit? kernel/ikconfig.h:CONFIG_LOG_BUF_SHIFT=14 \n\ Mmmm, that says do not edit, auto-generated, so how about this one? include/config/log/buf/shift.h which contains only that single line. Its now 15 & we'll see. -- Cheers, Gene AMD K6-III@500mhz 320M Athlon1600XP@1400mhz 512M 99.27% setiathome rank, not too shabby for a WV hillbilly Yahoo.com attornies please note, additions to this message by Gene Heskett are: Copyright 2003 by Maurice Eugene Heskett, all rights reserved. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
