I'm running 2.6.7 with the staircase patch, and UT2004 - as well as everything else - works great. Machine is an Athlon XP 2600+ with nVidia FX 5600. I haven't tweaked any nice values or /proc settings. FWIW, the whole 2.6.7 experience seems great. All of the mysterious troubles I had with 2.6.6 (eg failing to call init) seem to have vanished, and everything is running beautifully again. For me, at least, 2.6.6 was a very ungreased turkey, but now I'm happy again!
