stripping is not entirely correct. marc does not list all recipients ;)
Thank you.

yes. It always is.

maybe. But I do not complain about jerks at all. I have
[ 3618.305918] hpet1: lost 1 rtc interrupts
with tvtime running since I switched cpus - so something is wrong anyway.
I just wanted to report that for _me_ the behaviour is worse with
NO_NEW_FAIR_SLEEPERS and plain 2.6.31.
I tried it yesterday when the firefox update came in and I switched between
NO_NEW_FAIR... and NEW_FAIR... several times and with NO_NEW_FAIR... tvtime
was just _more_ jerky, I am not saying that it wasn't jerky without it nor do
I complain about it at all. ;)
Glück Auf,
Volker
