This is fixed in > 2.4.20-pre4-ben0 kernels, unfortuanatly there are |
| 13 |
stability issues with the presently rsyncable benh tree and so we have |
| 14 |
been unable to release a more up to date ppc-sources ebuild. The |
| 15 |
linux-2.4.19-r6 sources are quite old now (infact they are a |
| 16 |
2.4.19-pre10). |

This passed week i have been working on a 2.4.20 ebuild (based on |
| 19 |
2.4.20-pre7 that doesn't seem to have the stability issues found |
| 20 |
in more recent rsyncs), this should fix your sleep problem.. |
| 21 |
I have been down with an almost debilating dose of strep throat and so |
| 22 |
have been unable to do even the simplist things these past few days. |

Sufice to say this is an issue we are aware of .. see: |

|

and will hopefully have a fix along soon (plus a more sane model for |
| 29 |
ppc-sources .. more on this later). |
