kernel building problems: low-latency and pre-emptive patches
Greetings,
Given how my HP712-60 is such a _SLOW_ machine, I thought I'd give a try to the
low-latency and pre-emptive patches. They seem to apply fine, as shown below,
but fail to appear in the configuration menus where I would need to enable them.
Anybody can shed a light as to why that is and how would I make them appear?
Btw, this was using whatever kernel is currently in the parisc-linux CVS.
Thanks!
