Re: [SSI-users] 2.6.14-smp kernel headers and sources

[Cumberland, L. <lon...@ni...>]

Hi John,

One more question, ok.

How do I increase the number of max nodes in OpenSSI? 

Apparently there seems to be a max of 15 nodes when I crank up the "ssi-addnode" and I need to have at least double that amount if not many more in the future as I like what I have seen in OpenSSI so far. 

Thanks and have a great day,
Lonnie Cumberland, Prof.

What version of gcc do you have.

4.x is no good

I think 3.4 or 3.5 should work.
