bisco: try using vanilla 2.6.12 with git4 or higher, no sign of devfs in there... So it looks like you gonna be stuck with vanilla 2.6.12 forever 
Gentree: OMFG, i have alrady said more than once: ALSA IN THIS NITRO IS NEWER THAN ALL STUFF IN PORTAGE!!!!!
and it has been adapted to nitro in nearly every driver, alsa as well as oss.
I have an impression that you and Robin79 just ignore my posts...oh well, whatever..... 
jiangtao so 
TheAlamo will do in nitro3
jannis:
oh boy, this will be long:
so, these functions are changing for 2.6.13, they already have in 2.6.12-git4 ( or even earlier snaps ).
so, you have to manually edit the code, as i dont have internet at home for next 2 weeks,
which means i cant do a patched ebuild.
What you have to do is following changes:
| Code: |
class_simple_destroy(x)
|
CHANGED INTO
=======================
| Code: |
class_simple_create(x,y)
|
CHANGED INTO
=======================
| Code: |
class_simple_device_add(x, y, z, xx, yy)
|
CHANGED INTO
| Code: |
class_device_create(x, y, z, xx, yy)
|
=======================
 And the tricky one:
| Code: |
class_simple_device_remove(y)
|
CHANGED INTO
| Code: |
class_device_destroy(x,y)
|
 Trick in the last one is, that it now also needs the device class passed as first argument,
solution: take the same class as in class_(simple_)create.
I hope it is clear enough, take a look at this patch for lirc 0.7.1 that i made, it shows how it goes:
lirc-0.7.1-class_simple-patch1-from_nitro.diff
cheers,
 and keep in mind im only rarely on the inet now...

devfs is removed by the "mm-patch". there is a function-renaming-issue with this which makes module fail such as "kqemu" or "kfusd". I'm trying to fix kfusd right now.
@Tiger683: exactly this is how much I found out until now, but thank you very much for the more detailed information! |

devfs is removed by patches from GregKH, though the Kconfig option for devfs got removed in one of the first two gits or so...
naming issues were already in git(4?)
cheers

Can you puleeze provide me with your .config file ?
[EDIT]
Well forget it, I'm having problems with the pcmcia card version. I think it's more a pcmcia (yenta-socket) issue, than the madwifi issue itself or a combination of both !!! Still trying to figure this out.
[/EDIT]
tnx n regards

Tiger683 -
A great kernel-source !!!
vmware - nvidia - all works great.
I compile all alsa stuff into the kernel - no modules and it works fine here.
Nitro has always seemed to be at a level of its own

I've found this on [url]rage3d.com[/url] boards.
I then modified the ati-drivers ebuild and commented all the "epatch" lines and I added 4 for each patch there is on there.
Linky: http://www.rage3d.com/board/showthread.php?t=33819631
They work flawlesly and I've been playing UT2004 for hours without any crash.
Good luck!

Can you upload your modified eBuild, please?
Following this thread there are also patches (may the same?) here:

Everything works like a charm except nvidia module, which refuses to load  (it loads properly with 2.6.11-nitro though  )
I get this when startx :
| Code: | Fatal server error:
Module load failure. |
nvidia kernel version is 1.0.7664.
It seems i´m the only one having problems with nvidia *sigh*
Any idea on this?
Thanks in advance.

Very very strange indeed I use nvidia and I'm having better FPS with this release of kernel than with any other.

Sure!
Ebuild for ati-drivers-8.14.13-r1 modified to work with patches from [url]rage3d.com[/url] forums:
http://cron0.net/linux/ati-drivers-8.14.13-r1.tar.gz
Extract this in your ${PORTDIR_OVERLAY}/media-video/
Crappy ebuild hack but it works for me!

this latest version of nitro-sources doesn't work with swsusp2. even if you upgrade to the newest hibernate-script, all you get is a "syntax error" after it tries to unload modules.

Is there anyone with an nForce4 for who this *does* fix the resource conflict problems? iirc, the few people who reported back all reported negative...

| Yeah!! Tried that ATi patch, and now I'm flying! In fact, with that ATi patch, this kernel performs better in 3D mode than with 2.6.11 kernel, with unmodified ATi module. But when ATi release a proper driver I think I will use that since the kernel agpgart is always faster. Great kernel! Genetic scheduler is damn good! I also got ALSA working, and VMWare Workstation 5. No stability problems so far. Great stuff I think I've found myself a new favorite patchset. |

And you think this is bad? well, tell the devs not to deprecate stuff and leave it in there for over a year.
BTW, there are not less warnings while compiling a vanilla kernel, if you know any better,
go on, i dont hold you back.......
About NF4 problem: i said "lets hope it solves it".... apparently the problem is somewhere else.
If i only had internet at home now, i'd sift through lkml a little closer, but sorry, next 3 weeks nogo......
and then either nitro3 arrives , or, if rc4 or higher gets released, we will get a nitro1

The presence of the codeword PREEMPT is just there to aid debugging of the oops so the devs know it is a preempt kernel. It does not mean the problem is due to preempt. This appears to be a sysfs bug. |

The presence of the codeword PREEMPT is just there to aid debugging of the oops so the devs know it is a preempt kernel. It does not mean the problem is due to preempt. This appears to be a sysfs bug. |
I've the problem that this message is displayed on tty1 after booting.

hehe, this oops is probably genetic-as related....
i also discovered 2 minor memleaks in genetic-lib.... so
guys: its your decision: either genetics or a clean kernel...
PS: chances are good i will have internet@home again really soon
cheers

Same here. Swsusp2 doesn't seem to work. Suspending works ok, but resuming hangs right after copying the old kernel back (no errors in log, because log writing doesn't start before it locks up). Shame.. it looked so promising at first..
