MyrddinEmrys: Looks like it's gotten confused with one of the parameters - maybe it's not optional in this release?
"make mrproper" will clean out your .config from memory - if not deleting .config should do it. Then go into menuconfig, device drivers, USB and put in a value for "USB HID Polling Interval" - 10's the default, 2's nicer if your mouse will handle it.
Or it may well be easier to edit .config, and find the USB_HID_MOUSE_POLLING_INTERVAL line, and change it to "CONFIG_USB_HID_MOUSE_POLLING_INTERVAL=2".
Lunchy: Note that it's the polling interval, not the polling rate. Hence a value of 2 gives 500Hz polling - when you entered 1000 it would have been checking once a second. Your mouse probably got totally bored/confused and stopped bothering at that point

There are a ton of posts about this in both threads. You need to go in and set the polling interval. The easiest way to do this is nano -w .config, the hit Ctrl+W, then type in POLLING and set the value to something. If you have a USB MX anything, set it to 2, otherwise I don't know, look around.

cheers.

I really seem to be having a bad Gentoo day... I compiled the kernel, edited lilo, rebooted... everything loaded fine, no errors... BUT...
X seems to simply freeze while starting... I just see a black screen and it goes nowhere from there on...
The weirdest part is that it now happens to both my kernels (I kept the love1 just in case... yeah, right...)
any1 had a similar problem ? maybe some file got tempered with when it wasen't supposed to ?

Ok, I noticed one thing that changed since love1: when switching resolutions, my lcd has a 4-5 second delay, with the message "No Signal", before the image reappears. Any hints? Some change in -mm?

|
|
I've been testing love-sources a bit... To test it's stability I put it through everyday use: running "emerge world" along side a 700mb movie, with skype, |with apache2, mysql, postfix, courier-imap|(remotly used by my friends), with, amule, with firefox and on top of it all; cube...
And from what I see: On my Athlon 64 3500+(full 64bit environment) nothing crashed. The runnig speed was more than acceptable. Believe me!
I checked my /var/log/messages, nothing to report.
Linux-2.6.11-love2 is AMD64 friendly (to me). |

I'm a bit confused...
Is switching to the new version(if it is) really beneficial?
Does increasing interactivity mean decreasing overall speed(as always)?
Thanks for reading |

I finally managed to get X started with it. But now I dont have AGP acceleration disabled. I disabled AGPGART in the kernel, so I am trying to use NVAGP.
| Code: |
elocal@gentux64 ~ $ cat /proc/driver/nvidia/agp/status
Status: Disabled
AGP initialization failed, please check the ouput
of the 'dmesg' command and/or your system log file
for additional information on this problem.
|
There is no error in dmesg or Xorg.0.log .
Any idea of what the problem is?
EDIT1:
just FYI I am running AMD64, 64bit mode, chipset is a VIA K8T800. |

... do dmesg|less and scroll through there till you get to nvidia.
Hopefuly, you have a system logger enabled, so check /var/log/messages next.

I just compiled AGPGART in the kernel, recompiled nvidia-kerne, and use AGPGART instead of NVAGP, its working.
I suppose there is no difference in performance between AGPGART and NVAGP, is there?
Because I am getting with these drivers, compared with the 6629, only a 10 fps increase in glxgears(dont laugh at this bech...).
My card is an 6600GT AGP8x I get 6515FPS in glxgears.
Regards....... |

There can be differences between the agp module used, i have the same card and it gives me around the same fps as yours.

1) To fix oops with usb I need to unset CONFIG_GENETIC_IOSCHED_AS ?
2) What is better NVAGP or AGPGART ?

Heh. Using 6629 drivers with a GeForce FX 5900, I get 6893.4 FPS.
Is it really possible that my card is faster than yours? Or is yours just bottlenecked by your CPU?
Checking with 7167 drivers now.
[edit]
Heh, cool - 7760.400 FPS with 7167. |

the lower base_timeslice benefit can be greater than other things decrese.
however with genetic nicksched base_timeslice is fluctuating all the time , so the different is less than with static timeslice. Now is possibility to choose, just try and then choose better range for U I`m using 4-128 now.

ad1) EXACTLY , Genetic Nicksched is safe.
ad2) With 6629 I don`t saw the difference beetwen agpgart and nvagp ( also with benchmarks) with 7167 without fixes NVAGP is better , but with latest fixes ( r1 from portage ) I also don`t see the difference. However I backed to the 6629 because I have freezes with 7167 and composite. with 6629 everything is ok . I have nv answer that my card can be ...too old  -> Geforce 2 GTS ...
cheers.
