For me, his profile shown in the threads is a personal attack at all.

I'm back, and here to make an apology. I just got un-banned, and am fulfilling a requirement for reinstatement.

No matter what a person's principles may be, it is NOT RIGHT to resort to personal attacks.

I apologise to anybody that I have offended.

Deepest regards;
James

Is anyone else noticing mind-bogglingly slow CD ripping? I just got a new drive, DVD+-R/RW DVD+-R DL CD-R/RW (Lite-On SOHW-1693S) and it's horrendously slow ripping and awesomly fast burning. I'm about to try another kernel, but I just wanted to know if anyone else has the problem...


are u using sata? I have / had similar problems... But they should be sorted out in the new 2.6.15 kernel. So we just need to wait a bit 8)

Please keep this thread clean.
The only thing that really matters for me about 1U is
that he is one of the most dedicated (even though sometimes also impulsive)
nitro supporters...

No flaming please. We might as well keep this thread closed and just wait for 2.6.15,
if anyone needs time to cool down....

Kernel crashes if I compiled swsusp in and activate it by:
echo shutdown > /sys/power/disk; echo disk > /sys/power/state

the BUG is ON drivers/block/ll_rw_blk.c:3034

BTW: I have heard that swsusp, not suspend2, works with ati-drivers, even X loads both glx and dri
Anyone can verify this?

Problem might be in this condition:
!(bio_flagged(bio, BIO_SUSPEND2))

You are apparently using suspend1 interface,
while suspend2 is the default method in this kernel,
I think suspend2 guys should still work on not interfering with suspend1.

PS: we have a git2 today, so it seems like linus is back,
I hope this is all they need to release final.

I verified it myself
Suspend2 also can achieve this
emerge vbetool first
then set some vbetool related option in hibernate.conf to YES
haha

Hmm I read that the latest ati drivers should stop freezing, but I can't try that out because my lappy hangs already while suspending. And the version of suspend2 in this kernel is old so we need a new kernel with latest suspend2 patches for trying out that.

@nitro-devs:

Would it be possible to include the following patch in nitro?

pach for ibm-acpi: fan controlling

Would be very nice!

I've tried to apply fan-control patch manually over nitro - without any success, in fact id did not apply at all. So I've just enabled this "experimental" feature that allows to do the same but in slightly different way.

And looked at kernel.org today - git3 is out. Bad luck, no release this time :(

I had no problem applying the patch on the latest acid sources. But I don't know about this nitro...

I dont know wether i should enable or disable swap prefetching... For a desktop system which isnt on longer than 10 h /day, what is reasonable if i use apps which take up much memory (vmware for example)

If it's not required in your workload it doesn't do anything, and costs virtually zero overhead so enable it - you can only gain from it.

I am having a difficult time figuring this nitro boot logo on x86_64 (was a piece of cake on plain old x86) - any help would be appreciated (been searching so long) :lol:

Edit: Got it - just had to put "vga=0x317" in my lilo.conf :idea:

Hi,

could not install the nitro-sources :(

Someone could help me ? :)

Quote:

piripiri002 nitro-sources # emerge nitro-sources
Calculating dependencies
!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "nitro-sources" have been masked.
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request:
- sys-kernel/nitro-sources-2.6.14-r2 (masked by: ~amd64 keyword)

For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man page or
section 2.2 "Software Availability" in the Gentoo Handbook.


thx


Edit:

It works. .)

forgot to edit the /etc/portage/packages/keywords :)

Just my two cents, but this seems to be one of the best nitro-sources ive ever used.

TBH i'm still a little confused on what the best io scheduler and things like that are. i've found cfq is horrible for gaming. anticipatory is what i'm using now, quite a bit better.

Here's an introductory document on some kernel schedulers: http://www.redhat.com/magazine/008jun05/features/schedulers/. It lists summary information behind 4 schedulers that are used in linux kernels.

Here's are some more in-depth / arterial documents on the subject: http://research.ihost.com/osihpa/osihpa-seelam.pdf, http://research.utep.edu/Portals/937/SeelamLinuxSymposium2005.pdf, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CFQ, and http://kerneltrap.org/node/580.

Hi!

There is a nice burning gentoo logo in the upper left corner when booting. Is this logo availible in higher resolutions? I would be cool to make a nice frambuffer splash out of this?

No it isn't. Tiger said this in a previous post.
