Date: Wed, 08 Sep 2004 19:18:06 +0100 Does anyone know where to find this "magic number"? I did a grep for lines with "file" and "16" in them and turned up nothing helpful. The most promising 16 I found was in Queue Length in kernel.h ...but past expereince tells me that this would have impact on a number of other areas. The tricky bit is knowing how to make the required change. Once that is done. It is a very simple task for anyone to compile and maintain their own personal build.
