[opensuse] how to set /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs ?

i'm attempting to work around a kernel-bug on openSUSE 11.1. a purported fix for Debian suggests setting echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs but it's missing on 11.1. trying to add to sysctl.conf, echo "kernel.hung_task_timeout_secs=0" >> /etc/sysctl.conf so as to to survive boot, i get in boot.msg, /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs: No such file or directory" error. how do i set this value, and get it to stick? is it named something else on opensuse? thanks. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
