I guess most of the new team members will be reading the site and deciding what they want to do for the next few days, so you'll probably still be able to recognize it if you come back. OTOH, if someone _were_ to do some HTML and CVS practice and make the site unrecognizable before Mark came back, that would be fun... cheers, Rik -- Open Source: you deserve to be in control of your data. +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Le Reseau netwerksystemen BV: http://www.reseau.nl/ | | Linux Memory Management site: http://www.linux.eu.org/Linux-MM/ | | Nederlandse Linux documentatie: http://www.nl.linux.org/ | +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ - Linux-mm-www: builders list for the Linux-MM website Archive: http://humbolt.nl.linux.org/lists/ Web site: http://www.linux.eu.org/Linux-MM/ From owner-linux-mm-www@humbolt.nl.linux.org Sat Jul 24 12:46:46 1999 Received: by humbolt.nl.linux.org id ; Sat, 24 Jul 1999 12:46:30 +0200 Received: from post-10.mail.nl.demon.net ([194.159.73.20]:7341 "EHLO post.mail.nl.demon.net" smtp-auth: ) by humbolt.nl.linux.org with ESMTP id ; Sat, 24 Jul 1999 12:45:54 +0200 Received: from [212.238.108.69] (helo=agratax.demon.nl) by post.mail.nl.demon.net with esmtp (Exim 2.02 #1) id 117zJM-0002hT-00; Sat, 24 Jul 1999 10:45:48 +0000 Received: from mirkwood.nl.linux.org ([10.0.0.1]:49937 "EHLO mirkwood.nl.linux.org") by mirkwood.nl.linux.org with ESMTP id ; Sat, 24 Jul 1999 12:42:58 +0200 Date: Sat, 24 Jul 1999 12:42:57 +0200 (CEST) From: Rik van Riel To: Ruben cc: eulug-help@humbolt.nl.linux.org, linux-mm-www@humbolt.nl.linux.org Subject: Re: Can't allocate memory In-Reply-To: Message-ID: X-Search-Engine-Bait: http://humbolt.nl.linux.org/ X-My-Own-Server: http://www.nl.linux.org/ MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-linux-mm-www@humbolt.nl.linux.org Precedence: bulk Reply-To: linux-mm-www@humbolt.nl.linux.org Return-Path: X-Orcpt: rfc822;linux-mm-www-list On Fri, 23 Jul 1999, Ruben wrote: > Well, I use ALSA drivers for my soundcard (it allows me full > duplex in my sb16).

The problem is that the kernel needs 64k of physically contiguous memory in the lower 16 MB of memory. With the OSS driver it's a config option to just reserve that memory on bootup -- 64k is nothing in a 64M system... > I don't know much about Linux memory management, can anybody > help me?

Linux-mm-www team: I think we should make this an FAQ and explain (in detail) how things work and what should be done to overcome this limitation...
