Greetings all;

I went ahead and buiilt 2.6.31-rc9 & rebooted to it, but I am being plagued 
by segfaults, taking down knotify and kmail, and a bluetooth tool I just 
tried to run.

kmail restarted ok, but several others have reported that the exec call 
failed.

No more than I know about slabtop, it looks much like it has before.

Cheers, Gene

Is that 64-bit or 32-bit?

I don't see the problems you describe on any of my test boxes.

This is interesting.  I have noticed that it takes two trys to get kmail to start here.  Never thought it
might be kernel related though.  Thinking about it it started happen about the time I flipped from 30
to 31-rc8.  I am gentoo amd64.

Thanks
