Re: [patch] inotify for 2.6.11

[Prakash Punnoor <prakashp@arcor.de>]

Hi,

I am having a little trouble with inotify 0.22. Previous version worked w/o
trouble (even with nvidia and nvsound loaded) with 2.6.12-rc1-kb2 and gamin

Now I use 2.6.12-rc2 with inotify 0.22 and got this after a few minutes of
uptime (compiling some stuff):
