This ist the default value as in the GENERICISA config file. Or the other way, you have to recompile the kernel with your value of 0x288 if there is a good reason for this. Take a look into the config files in /sys/i386/conf. -- Frank Nobis fn@irb.informatik.uni-dortmund.de Univ. Dortmund, IRB Tel. +49 231 755 2106 Postfach 500500 D-4600 Dortmund
