Package: linux-2.6.30-1-686 Severity: normal I just discovered that the Debian kernel packages do not have preemption enabled:
CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE=y # CONFIG_PREEMPT is not set Some checking suggests that this choice dates back to the very early 2.6 kernel days, when preemption still represented an experimental option and much kernel code still needed fixing to work properly with it. That has not held true for a very long time, and CONFIG_PREEMPT now represents the more common kernel configuration. Please consider switching from CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE to CONFIG_PREEMPT. - Josh Triplett -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.30-1-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
