+title: Preempt This!
+---
+
+<p>
+Just upgraded my kernel to 
+<a href="http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/alan/linux-2.4/2.4.13/">2.4.13-ac2</a>
+with the <a href="http://www.tech9.net/rml/linux/">preemptible kernel
+patch</a> by Robert Love.  Everything appears to be working correctly
+with SMP now, and my system does seem a little bit faster (although it's
+kind of hard to tell <i>;)</i>).  Anyway, 
+<a href="http://www.kerneltrap.com/article.php?sid=328&amp;mode=thread&amp;order=0&amp;thold=0">here</a>
+is a great interview with Robert Love describing the preemptable kernel
+patch and comparing it with the other reduced-latency kernel patch
+floating around.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+Otherwise, things seem to be running okay.  Still no luck with the DVD
+drive; I'm starting to think I've got a bum drive (it throws a ton of
+errors regardless of the DVD, player, configuration, etc).  The strange
+thing is I can mount and read CDs and DVDs just fine; playing them is
+just a no-go.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+Finally, I posted a no-documentation tarball of my mutt settings.  If
+you're interested, you can grab them <a
+href="/download/mutt_settings-20011027.tar.gz">here</a>. <b>Please</b>
+remove my email and name before using these files.
