-> I hope so. And I think it will, eventually, but if it were my kernel I'd
-> feel a lot better about imon if I didn't have to see a bunch of IMON_EVENT

-> then fam could just use that.)
true - well sofar imon at kernel level works fine... so i'm happy wiht
it.. i havent spotted smp problems nor any noticable speed issues...
hmmm i'd be temtped to - once the current issue you have is resolved
and 2.4 is out to submit it for 2.5 ASAP so it goes in 2.5 early :)
