Potato and ll_rw_block - and a bit about Gnus



(This is a rough translation of an article I posted a few hours
earlier on Finnish linux-newsgroup.)

What is ll_rw_block and why is kernel nagging me about it?

from /var/log/syslog:

Aug 21 17:02:24 erasmus kernel: ll_rw_block: device 03:06: only 1024-char blocks implemented (4096)
Aug 21 17:02:24 erasmus last message repeated 15 times

I first noticed this after I had compiled a custom kernel - or a
couple of them - from kernel-source-2.2.17 provided with Potato. (This
would make the kernel itself pre6, if memory serves).

Machine I use is a Dell laptop.

(By the way... Did others get Gnus 5.8 work out-of-the-box? For me it
seemed impossible to make Gnus accept C-C C-C in message buffer. Kinda
limited its use... Gnus from Woody seems to work alrigh, though.)

Suonpää...
