FAQ wrote:

-- Love sources FAQ --
Orginally written by: Love-sources team
Revision by: predatorfreak

Q: I have a black-sreen freeze after startx
A: Please try and compile the kernel without vesa-tng support enabled (built-in/module).

Q: Why Ingosched is in Love-Sources now ?
A: Ingosched has the most testing because is tested by all vanilla users.
It is also defulat Linux 2.6 CPU Scheduler and it is pretty stable now.
Ingosched development also doesn't sleep, look into -mm tree for example.

Q: Why Real Time Preemption is kicked out of this release ?
A: RTP is an extension by Ingo Molnar to provide a kind of real time preemption.
As We said in every info full real time mode isn't required for overall destkop usage,
The Majority of users have Low Latency Mode compiled ( which is the same as stock kernel
CONFIG_PREEMPT ) and we have a number of errors RTP related - we decided to concentrate on
Low Latency Destkop Mode not Full Real Time Preempting.

Q: How to use the RT rlimits patch for Linux Audio?
A: please follow this nice how-to -> http://www.steamballoon.com/wiki/Rlimits

Q: So, where did Reiser4 go?
A: Away

Q: Why?
A: A number of reasons, the love sources team strive to bring you the
best desktop experience and Reiser4 can greatly degrade interactivity and
increase cpu usage. It's illogical to have a CPU Scheduler oriented towards reduced
latencies and filesystem with high latencies.
It's also operating under several wrong assumptions on things
like page table sizes. Reiser4 also doesn't support architectures
aside from x86/x86-64 and doesn't run on the 4kb stack size.

Q: So now that love-sources isn't going to support Reiser4 what do I do?
A: Compile one of the great number of Reiser4 enabled kernels, like
Andrew Morton's mm tree, which is even in portage.

Q: Why are you pulling Reiser4, it's the base of Love-sources?
A: Actually it's not, when love-sources started it was in large part to
research how to allivate the famous music lag bug. A bug that Reiser4
ironically introduces again.

Q: Okay so I shouldn't use Reiser4, what then?
A: Ext3 with dir_index is a much better universal filesystem for a desktop since
it performs nicely and has really good latency. Aside such likable
qualities as stability , it has been developed for "ages" in comparision to Reiser4.

Q: I'm an ext3 user, but how can I check or enabled the dir_index feature?
A: Please check if you have it in the superblock by using this line:
1) my_box# tune2fs -l /dev/hdaXY
if You should receive a line like this one with dir_index enabled:
Filesystem features: has_journal dir_index filetype needs_recovery sparse_super
then you have it enabled.
if not, please use:
1) tune2fs -O dir_index /dev/hdXY
2a) updatedb
or
2b) e2fsck -D /dev/hdXY

Q: I'm a Laptop user, I want to increse my battery life-time, what should I do ?
A: Use JFS as your filesystem, It has less cpu usage (definatly better than reiserfs/reiser4)
and your battery lifetime will be increased up too 30% more then reiserfs/reiser4.
In Love-Sources there are also up too date fixes for it.

Q: Okay, I'm interested in better interactivity, I can resign from using reiser4 for this.
Now I'm using other filesystems (we recommend you use ext3+dir_index).
Which IO Scheduler should I use?
A: Please try the CFQ-TS IO scheduler (default in love-sources).
This is a Completly Fair Queuing IO Scheduler which gives you optimal destkop interactivity
even in heavy filesystem usage.

Q: What about Nvidia and Ati fixes?
A: In the current love there are no Nvidia or Ati fixes.
Please use Driver side fixes from the net (there are many fixes).
If you're an Nvidia user, Many of the good fixes are in Gentoo Portage.
minimum kernel driver required to run this release is nvidia-kernel-6629-r4.

playfool's guide to make ATI work:
1) get the ati source code GPL'ed
2) enjoy a working driver
(for the guide to make nvidia work, just replace the word ati with nvidia)

Forgive me for asking but, what happened to RTP? Is it dropped because of http://lkml.org/lkml/2005/6/10/157

Nice kernel, smooth and stable (for past 2 hrs).

One thing... No fbsplash? The rc3 pacth applies and works fine without any changes, or is there another reason for not including it?

Thanks, nice work

I guessing 95% ppl selected Low Latency Destkop Mode not FullRT.
and We always said that incresing preemption = decresing trhoughput.
is good to find a BALANCE beetwen this 2 things just. extremaly mode is just too extremaly. :)

Thanks, nice work


reasons :
- we prefer our logo , ok this is lol :)
- we was little disgusted when users in the past always blaming us for bad in fbsplash , because they didnt read a info and didnt generate new initrd or a tons of other stupid reasons .
new politics: " Want fsbplash , apply it Yourself :) " :)

cheers.

Compiled fine and working stable here. Also, it feels faster and more responsable than before, with rc3-love1. The problem with IOAPIC from previous rc4 and rc5 is also gone here. :)

solution is simple :)
if You want fbsplash
1) patch it yourself
2) use another patchset with fbsplash

no democracy here :D :P

Maybe "we" should stop wasting fallow's time, you know he is doing this on his own time so you pressuring him for a feature he doesn't want to include... think about that for a second.. you know what that makes you... a telemarketer.

Let fallow and Lovechild do what they want, if you don't like that, then by all means install a patchset that has the features you like. Pretty please with a chery on top will you do that just for me?

Okay, wannabe, c'mon some more to flame? I don't bother, but what the hell is this?
I did not want to make him include something he DOES NOT WANT... I just want to give ideas respectivley think about this if this is really an easy patch. (I know it i patch everytime new love release comes out, the kernel with the latest fbsplash, so what?!)

By any means, now don't waste MY time by involving me in senseless talk, i.e. flame.

This sort of breaks X for me. After about a half an hours use, almost nothing starts anymore. I was able to get some console output starting firefox for eample.

Code:
_X11TransSocketOpenCOTSClient: Unable to open socket for local
_X11TransOpen: transport open failed for local/euclid:0
xdpyinfo:  unable to open display ":0.0".
No running windows found
_X11TransSocketOpenCOTSClient: Unable to open socket for local
_X11TransOpen: transport open failed for local/euclid:0

(firefox-bin:19888): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:
firefox-bin exited with non-zero status (1)


I'm thinking it broke sockets or something. Weird part is that everything initially works fine. Anyone have any ideas?

This sort of breaks X for me. After about a half an hours use, almost nothing starts anymore. I was able to get some console output starting firefox for eample.

Code:
_X11TransSocketOpenCOTSClient: Unable to open socket for local
_X11TransOpen: transport open failed for local/euclid:0
xdpyinfo:  unable to open display ":0.0".
No running windows found
_X11TransSocketOpenCOTSClient: Unable to open socket for local
_X11TransOpen: transport open failed for local/euclid:0

(firefox-bin:19888): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:
firefox-bin exited with non-zero status (1)


I'm thinking it broke sockets or something. Weird part is that everything initially works fine. Anyone have any ideas?


why are You thinking that this is kernel related problem ?

Yes, polish roots. Since a couple of years ago. =)

I expected this kind of reaction, thought about it when I wrote that word. Thanks for paying me some attention guys ;)

Cheers!

I updated from 2.6.12-rc2-love1 to -rc6-love1 and now i get no correct bash with [ALT] + [STRG] + F1 (F2...). With F1 there is a black screen with a few green and violet fragments. In F2 to F6 there is only a black screen. In -rc2-love1 everything was ok.

Problem is solved: Changed vesafb to vesafb-tng in kernel konfiguration and problem was gone.

It started right after I ran the kernel, and it's been fine since I switched back to my previous kernel 2.6.11-gentoo-r5. And yes, I gave it quite a few reboots to be sure it wasn't a fluke. I'm pretty sure it's kernel related.

Swap-sched seems interesting, has anyone tried it?

Compiled and very stable here.

The the Q&A is tells about a Nvidia fix. What do you mean?

I have an older FX5200 card and I just emerged nvidia-kernel and it works great. Did I miss something?

Code:

name of display: :0.0
display: :0  screen: 0
direct rendering: Yes
server glx vendor string: NVIDIA Corporation
server glx version string: 1.3
