Extensions in prerequisite-free, disjunction-free default theories hav
e been shown to be in direct correspondence with kernels of directed g
raphs; hence default theories without odd cycles always have a ''stand
ard'' kind of an extension. We show that, although all ''standard'' ex
tensions can be enumerated explicitly, several other problems remain i
ntractable for such theories: Telling-whether a non-standard extension
exists, enumerating all extensions, and finding the minimal standard
extension. We also present a new graph-theoretic algorithm, based on v
ertex feedback sets, for enumerating all extensions of a general prere
quisite-free, disjunction-free default theory (possibly with odd cycle
s). The algorithm empirically performs well for quite large theories.
