	I've 128 MB RAM on board of my Hades and sometimes I get that 
	"Kmalloc fails" too but always with the same prog, Phoenix 5.
	With the latest kernel this happens mostly when I do a search 
	session. When Phoenix has loaded the database there is usualy just 
	above the 117 MB RAM left. Now if the free RAM comes just under 
	the 117 MB RAM then there is a great possibility (but not always) 
	that I'll get that "Kmalloc fails" message when I do a search 
	session.

I've had that Phoenix problem with all the 1.15 beta's, sometimes worser, 
sometimes better.
