Here's what I'm running:
address@hidden,d1r17733u07 | uname -a
Linux ita1bbx40 2.6.18-128.el5 #1 SMP Wed Jan 21 10:41:14 EST 2009 x86_64
x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
address@hidden,d1r17733u07 | cat /etc/issue
CentOS release 5.3 (Final)
Kernel \r on an \m
address@hidden,d1r17733u07 |
I'm in a large shared environment where I can't upgrade sleep. I just wanted
to bring this to your attention, I can work around and don't need a fix.
Thanks.
