Bonjour Willy,

At least following should be set, the rest you can leave to your gusto:

CONFIG_ACPI=y
CONFIG_ACPI_BOOT=y
CONFIG_ACPI_BUS=y
CONFIG_ACPI_INTERPRETER=y
CONFIG_ACPI_EC=y
CONFIG_ACPI_POWER=y
CONFIG_ACPI_PCI=y
CONFIG_ACPI_MMCONFIG=y
CONFIG_ACPI_SLEEP=y
CONFIG_ACPI_SYSTEM=y

CONFIG_IP_VS=m
CONFIG_IP_VS_DEBUG=y
CONFIG_IP_VS_TAB_BITS=12
CONFIG_IP_VS_RR=m
CONFIG_IP_VS_WRR=m
CONFIG_IP_VS_LC=m
CONFIG_IP_VS_WLC=m
CONFIG_IP_VS_LBLC=m
CONFIG_IP_VS_LBLCR=m
CONFIG_IP_VS_DH=m
CONFIG_IP_VS_SH=m
CONFIG_IP_VS_SED=m
CONFIG_IP_VS_NQ=m
CONFIG_IP_VS_HPRIO=m
CONFIG_IP_VS_FTP=m

One issue is a possible C99'ism in the last IPVS patch. If you find
time, please have a 2.95.x compiler installed.

Another thing that could fail is if you additionally set

CONFIG_ACPI_FAN=m

and compile with CFLAGS="-g -ggdb"

I will, and I will get more details, as time permits. My beef with the
IPVS code seems to be wrong, the code works as expected so far. I'm
stress-testing it though until Sunday on a 4GB Dual P4 Xeon with HT combo.

Best regards,
Roberto Nibali, ratz
