Hi,

Is it meant, that the VMSPLIT_* options are only enabled
"if EMBEDDED"?

Indeed. Unfortunately, adjusting VMSPLIT appeared to break the assumptions of some programs like Valgrind (and hence caused a regression for some users). VMSPLIT was thusly "hidden" under CONFIG_EMBEDDED such that the only people who would be inclined to mess with the setting were people already tinkering with "low-level" settings if you will.

See line 470 of arch/i386/Kconfig

This is with 2.6.17-rc6-git4
