I've a Gentoo system with kernel 2.6.38.2 and use /etc/conf.d/local.start to set this value at boot to 1500. I think this is a regression althought it might be that this happened in 2.6.37 too. I cannot remember such a behaviour under 2.6.36. -- MfG/Sincerely Toralf Förster pgp finger print: 7B1A 07F4 EC82 0F90 D4C2 8936 872A E508 7DB6 9DA3 -- 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/
