hello everyone,
Could somone please tell me if I'm correct in believeing that
"do_page_fault" is for retriving virtual memory? And would it still be
called if a userspace program set CLI ??
Also I'm pretty sure I saw someone say X does this could somone confirm
that?
If so could this be the cause of the ugh that several people (including
myself) have reported when running X ?

Thanks for your time.
