One important note however, all these versions are highly dependent on kernel version. |
| 80 |
Newest kernels don't work (or work badly) with the stable versions, don't know about reverse. |
| 81 |
Check that you have started (all 3) as daemons in /etc/init.d/... (rc-update add app-name default) |
| 82 |
Another thing - check if you have 'inotify' enabled in your kernel config. |
| 83 |
That's all, think i haven't forgotten something ;-) |
