With pre-2.0.31-2 and an older patch, I once got some execute bits turned on by
themselves. With a standard 2.0.30 kernel, the system locks up almost all the
time. It's a 486 motherboard with a cyrix 586 cpu and 16MB of RAM.
I/m not sure this is related to the current buffer troubles, but I've never seen
this with any other kernel. I vaguely remember something about this but I don't
remember where. Any ideas?
Thanks.
