Bug#450939: HugeTLBfs missing

[Philipp Reisner <philipp.reisner@linbit.com>]

Package: Linux-2.6

Affordable amounts of core memory grow pretty fast. TLB misses get
an increasing burden for programs working with large data sets.

A way out is to use the HugePages. The Linux Kernel supports HugePages
by the HugeTLBfs. There is no Debian kernel with HugeTLBfs enabled in 
the configuration. 

Please either enable the HugeTLB in the configuration of the 
kernel, or add an futher edition of the linux-image package which
has the HugeTLBfs enabled.

Thanks!

-Phil
