Awesome, compiling now. I'm a recent love-sources convert as of a couple of weeks ago, I love it! Glad to see Nick's scheduler back, as I had some skipping during hardcore compiling/disk usage. Can't wait to reboot!

Thanks to steel300 and everyone else!

Edit: WOW, extremely fast. Excellent work!

No one's gotten the hidden messages in the title yet. I'm referring to the "Your Tea Is Ready Mrs Onassis" title for those that missed it.

I think not too much changes here. Only Andrew left some "dangerous" and "unuseful" things out, but I thing nothing really new. A good base for further -mm (and -love ;)) but nothing new by the way.

Perhaps Lovechild will be a bit more happy because some of the not-tested stuff left out -mm.

:D

2.6.5-love3 works very smooth!
I had tried love-sources long time ago but didn't notice this sources' features at that time.. and have been using development-sources, gentoo-dev-sources and ck-sources..

Finally, when I switched to this kernel, firefox loads web pages, especiallly the initial page (namely, home page) much smoother than ever! (my home page is on this box running apache2 etc.)
Is this due to Nick's scheduling? or due to something else?
Hmm.. anyway,.. very satisfactory 8)

Wow, what a kernel! I've never noticed any differences between kernels in the 2.6 series, but this one is amazing! X is simply faster, everywhere! Java is faster too. It's great! Are you sure you didn't make a pact with the devil or something? :wink:

Excellent work, really!

I've been with 2.6.5-love3 for a few hours without lookups. The only change I've made is disabling this in the kernel:

[ ] Local APIC support on uniprocessors
[ ] IO-APIC support on uniprocessors


and disabling APIC 1.4 in the BIOS.

I think CPU Disconnect is enabled. I don't know if this is good or not, but this way it runs flawlessly (by the moment).

Any coment?


But I think you can sefetly enable this since mm have necesary patches for nForce2... I've this enabled

I'm so :( ...

It doesn't work for me, halts while waiting for the IP address from the DHCP server, and I have to reboot (with ctrl-alt-del, so it's not a hardlock)... I've tried the same config as with 2.6.4-love1, but with no luck.

Some details (might be useful):
1. I use USB connection to my cable modem, with the usbnet module (when I tried compiling it in, it oopsed and didn't work), using an ethernet card is not an option.
2. I've tried with and without APIC
3. The /var/log/messages file doesn't show anything useful

Please help me!


I've recomplied the whole thing, with usbnet in the kernel, not as a module (I'm trying out everything I come up with), and I let it "stand still", waiting for the DHCP. After 5 minutes, it continues booting, but without internet connection :( What might be the problem? (I hope it's not me :roll: )

No, I have tested latests -loves (the last one being 2.6.5-love1) with apic enabled and my computer hard locks. I even lost data each time I try these kernels.

Actually I have APIC disabled at kernel and it runs ok. (disabling apic in bios is not enought).

i've installed and configured this kernel but when i boot it just after it starts xinetd it says

Disabling IRQ #18

and just sits there.

this is the /proc/interrupts for my 2.6.2 kernel:

CPU0 CPU1
0: 237289 0 IO-APIC-edge timer
1: 1153 0 IO-APIC-edge i8042
2: 0 0 XT-PIC cascade

18: 20831 6180 IO-APIC-level libata, ohci1394, uhci_hcd, eth0

20: 3 0 IO-APIC-level ohci1394

NMI: 0 0
LOC: 237142 237141

what do you think could be causing this problem??? i really want to try this kernel :D

thanks

I don't think I can help you, but anyways, perhaps you must give some details about your motherboard and so...

then I have no idea of what can happens.

The solution for the lookups in nforce motherboards (as related before) is removing support for APIC in the kernel but I think it's an nforce related problem, so test this only in last place.
