I wonder if there are several problems. Alan Cox claimed that there was a fix in linux-2.6.10-ac10 that might alleviate the problem.



I'm not sure --- there are a couple of bio/bh-related fixes in that
patch, but nothing against jbd/ext3 itself.



Does linux-2.6.11-rc2 have both the linux-2.6.10-ac10 fix and the xattr problem fixed?



Not sure about how much of -ac went in, but it has the xattr fix.

I've had my machine that would crash daily if not hourly stay up for 10 days now. This is with the linux-2.6.10-ac10 kernel. I was wondering if anyone else is having similiar results.
