Hi guys,

With recent kernel, 2.4.7 and 2.4.8 my syslog file has been filled with these messages:

Aug 12 02:08:58 sledgehammer kernel: __alloc_pages: 3-order allocation failed.
Aug 12 02:08:58 sledgehammer kernel: __alloc_pages: 2-order allocation failed.
Aug 12 02:08:58 sledgehammer kernel: __alloc_pages: 1-order allocation failed.
Aug 12 02:08:58 sledgehammer kernel: __alloc_pages: 3-order allocation failed.

I have not yet found a pattern for when it happens but it doesn't seam to affect my system all that much. Let me know if you want further info or if this is a known thing.
