We have a couple of Dells with 4G of memory. We have been
experiencing the same google problems. My boss has asked me to roll
one of them back to a 2.2 kernel, we will live with 2G of memory for
now, while I help out with testing mmap problems. I am, however
having problems compiling the 2.2.19 kernel with the
linux-2.2.19-reiserfs-3.5.34-patch.bz2 patch. I get the following
error:

I tried patching the 2.2.20-pre12 patch but got the same (or similar)
results.
After I get this 2.2.19 system stable by boss says fixing the google
bug is my "top priority". Unfortunely this will only like be the
second time I dig into linux source code so I expect it will be mostly
me testing other people patches. But I will try my best.
Here is info from my 2.2.19 system as asked for in the REPORTING-BUGS
file:
This is a Red Hat 7.1 system.

the Marcelo Patch is from the list time I stuck my nose in the kernel
with a himem patch. Checking my diff and the 2.4.13 kernel the stuff
is nearly the same.
