The patch wraps one define of atomic_dec_and_lock in an #ifndef CONFIG_PREEMPT, but I assume there is another defination elsewhere. For whatever reason, my kernel compiles fine. I am going to update the patch to 2.4.9-ac2, give that a try. Wait a second...you are _ENABLING_ the configure option, right? Always run `make oldconfig' !!! If you are not, in this case, the patch is breaking compiles where CONFIG_PREEMPT is not set...now I can fix that. Please let me know. -- Robert M. Love rml at ufl.edu rml at tech9.net
