Subject: page allocation failure & sk98lin
Date: Mon, 23 Aug 2004 23:28:40 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <412AE018.8000207@asperasoft.com> (raw)

Hello all,

I found a few references to similar problems in the list but no 
indications of whether this has been fixed or can be avoided.

I'm using 2.6.8.1 and the patch: sk98lin_v7.04_2.6.8_patch. This happens 
  when receiving data fast on the GigE card (about 600Mbps) and writing 
on disk. It seems to happen after writing 1 GB to disk (1024 MB) but I 
can't correlate that very reliably.

I would appreciate any information pointing me to a fix or explanation.

Thank you!
