swapped? You mean when they are set? I guess this is the right patch:

How about using kernel-image-2.2.19 for m68k? The m68k kernel patch packages
is already available since sime time (I guess precompiled images as well).
I have built me a 2.2.19 image and it seems to work fine so far. Any success
stories from other subarches (not other systems ;-)?
