"You know the drill by now: another week, another -rc," began Linux creator, Linus Torvalds, announcing the 2.6.26-rc4 kernel. "There's a lot of small stuff in here", he continued, "most people won't even notice. The most noticeable thing is for all you 32-bit x86 people who use PAE (enabled by the HIGHMEM64G config option) due to having too much memory in your machine - mprotect() was broken due to some of the PAT fix/cleanup patches, causing the NX bit to be not set correctly."2.6.26-rc4, "Things Are Calming Down" | KernelTrap
