I've had issues with (open)mosix not wanting to migrate processes like
audio/video encoding because it's quite disk-intensive.  But that was
before MFS was easily available, and I haven't tested with MFS.

I've also had trouble with the openmosix kernels not properly linking to
GL, thus preventing any kind of video acceleration.  Nor could I compile
the pundit's network driver with the openmosix kernel.

I'd *love* to get this kind of thing running, though...  I could run all
transcode processes on my myth box, and when it's available, mosix could
migrate work over to my dual athlon workstation.

Granted, this is all in redhat.
