i've just compiled a 2.6.12.RC4 kernel with

should i send this to the kernel list? will this cause problems on my
system?
This made it to the kernel list, I think. I seem to remember something
about the new kernel killing Nvidia binary drivers... 1 sec. I'll look.
about 2.6.12-rc2:
Elsewhere, Bob Gill reported that NVidia modules no longer worked for him,
and
Dave Jones replied, "Totally unsurprising. They'll need serious brain
surgery
to work with the multi-gart support. I'm amazed they even compiled for
you."

2.6.12.rc4 with rtlimits and rt_preempt patch and nvidia drivers.
