Indeed.

Similar for 2.6.9-rc1:

| cassandra:~# uname -a
| Linux cassandra 2.6.9-rc1 #37 Fri Sep 10 21:23:50 CEST 2004 m68k GNU/Linux
| cassandra:~# uptime
| 22:23:01 up 8 days,  2:36,  1 user,  load average: 0.61, 0.36, 0.13
| cassandra:~#

But 2.6.9-rc1 makes me suffer a lot from the OOM-killer, which didn't happen
with 2.6.8.1.

JFYI, my Amiga is mostly idle except for daily Amanda backup and apt-get update
& upgrade (dpkg is killed by OOM quite a lot :-(.

Hmm, both cards are very similar and share the same driver, so I'd expect
similar results...
