Thanks, that's what I did. I'm running it now, and it seems pretty snappy. Thanks, steel300, this kernel really does rock! I'll be using love-sources from now on.

The Alsa update at http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa/ftp/kernel-patches/alsa-bk-2003-12-05.patch.gz almost applies cleanly to 2.6.0-love1. :D

The few rejections are mostly stuff that was already applied, with maybe just one trivial exception that is easily fixed. Compiles fine but I cannot report runtime success or failure yet (the absence of an edit to this post can be taken to imply success).

:D So I assume that either the patches horribly blew up your computer, or that they work fine ... I'll go with the work fine part ;)

Just a quick question in regards to performance ... Nick Piggin's interactivity patches were present in all the love-sources builds that I've installed... in this one, I see that they are not present (replaced with "Con's VM swappiness"?). How will this impact performance?

Also ... in the previous love-sources threads, I read something about wli-sources and how they were pretty fast, but didn't merge cleanly with the love-sources stuff... now that Nick Piggin's interactivity patches are gone, would this apply? Would be nice to experiment with, if the benefits are worth it I think.

get the 2.6.0-love1.patch.bz2

emerge development-sources (to get kernel 2.6.0 vanilla)
bzip2 -d 2.6.0-love1.patch.bz2
cd linux-2.6.0
patch -p2 < ../2.6.0-love1.patch

and thats it.

looks good to me, at first it would not boot , it sort of hung in initialising
init 3, but that was for some strange reason something in my fstab to
do with cdroms, I took that out and it worked fine.

Thanks steel300,

I'm grabbing love1. Although could I be a complete pain. I had big problems with a previous love which included reiser4, buggering up vmware. Could you point me to the reiser4 patch you used so I can break it out :wink:

Update: No worries, I've found the reiser4 patches, I assume the latest (2003.12.23) was the one applied.

Got home, emerged, and all is smooth.

I had switched from test11-love3, to test11-bart1 and now that I've come back with the "stable"-love1, I realize what I've been missing.

Thanks for including the Sil Image patch! I know its only changing 2 digits in siimage.c, but its nice to know its there.

but.. just renaming -r1 worked for me [img:d1642b08ee]http://www.tpwch.com/smilies/erm.gif[/img:d1642b08ee]

And it seems like it worked without any renaming at all from the start. [img:d1642b08ee]http://www.tpwch.com/smilies/retard.gif[/img:d1642b08ee]

That's all I had to do as well.

The ALSA patch that i_hate_your_os linked to a few posts back applies to -love1 with only a few problems. Just say no when it asks if you want to reverse bits of it. It's working fine for me so far.

I cannot find reiser4 in the kernel config.

checked the fs/Kconfig, no reiser4. Small oversight?
Use this patch and the makefile patch.

Hmm, also, reiser4 doesn't compile for me (using gcc 3.4), so out it goes for me. Debugging is for after christmas.

update: booted fine, with forcedeth working, all compiled with gcc 3.4 (had to use -fno-unit-at-a-time to compile)

Reiser4 support is included, the core patches didn't apply cleanly. I had a slight snafu with the naming of the ebuild. Everything has been fixed. You can always check http://www.public.iastate.edu/~jpcox/linux/patches/2.6/2.6.0 for the latest. Like I said, I'll have intermittent internet access over break, and no acces to my machine. Once I get back from break, all of the bugs will be worked out. Expect a new patchset in early January. I'm glad to see so many people using love-sources, and helping each other out when I'm away.

Thank you all for the help, and Happy Compiling

I'm having difficulty finding the emu10k1 patch that everyone keeps talking about. I've searched all of alsa-devel, and have turned up nothing. I'm preparing for love-sources-r2, which would be a minor release containing all of the alsa stuff and the reiser4 core patches.

You guys are too quick. I just updated the patch again. I had to back out the reiser4 core changes. Now it just includes the alsa stuff. Clean out distfiles and try once more.

okidoki. cleaned it out and digesting now.

*update* digesting failed because some-
how there was a problem with the remote
location of that patch.

i am now extracting the 2.6.0 source and
applying the patch manually, whereafter i
will compile, reboot and report back.

i noticed that the patch does not set the
Makefile to -love2, but sets it to -love1.

*update* it compiled fine, and booted fine,
and runs fine as well. thanks steel300 :wink:

Ok. I am up and running on 2.6.0-love2. Good work, Steel300.

However, my DRI is really wacked. It's a Radeon Mobility 7500.

Anything with GL basically works, except that nothing gets erased from the screen. As objects are redrawn, the old version of the objects remains visible, thus causing a "trail" effect. This would seem to have something to do with buffering, I'm guessing. All the XScreensaver GL's screens are effected.

The glxgears program shows the same effect.

My previous kernel (2.6.0-Test11-love2) was fine, so it has to be something new here.

Anyone else noticing this?

how to test its effect.

neenee: Before you applied the patch did you here a quiet hum from the center channel? [If you have good speakers] it should be silent now.
