lndir can't link files > 2gB in 10.4 beta

[jt_eaton]

lndir works ok in 9.04 but 10.04 beta will not link files if they are larger than 2 Gb

Hi jt_eaton,

Please attach the output of `lspci -vvnn` and `dmesg`, and attach your /var/log/Xorg.0.log (and maybe Xorg.0.log.old) file from after reproducing this issue. If you're using a custom /etc/X11/xorg.conf please attach that as well.
