I have massive problems with linux-2.6.0-test2. When some process writes something to disk, it's very hard to go on working with the system. Some test-szenario: $ dd if=/dev/zero of=./test.file While dd is running, xmms skips playing every now and then and the mouse is near to be unusable. The Mouse-cursor behaves some kind of very lazy and some times it jumps from one point on the display to another. When I stop disk-access, it works again quite fine. Would be cool, if you could give me some point to start for tracking this down. Please CC me, as I'm not subscribed to linux-ide. Thanks. - -- Regards Michael Buesch [ http://www.8ung.at/tuxsoft ] Penguin on this machine: Linux 2.6.0-test2 - i386 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE/MU5XoxoigfggmSgRAjksAJsEfEP7chsGZLTkwNHK00Qn83UCbwCghgc+ 8fXS+vHuygb4xhj0CwlQBV4= =Cr38 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
