Good job, but I went back to rc3-love1
I find it smoother and more responsive with high diskload, don't know why... I used same config as before.
Well almost, except for the differences between rc3-love1 and rc6-love1
good job anyway

I have two problem with this stable release:
1) The system does not poweroff anymore. Instead, it reboots
2) ipw2200 does not compile. Here is the related error:

| Those errors can be reproduced under a vanilla 2.6.12-rc6 kernel? [that's the general method for knowing if the trouble is involving this great patchset or not, as you may have read before] |

I emerged kernel-2.6.12-rc6 and:
The first problem appears only with love-sources,
the second problem is present in kernel-2.6.12-rc6 too.
The second problem is a minor one and I do not really care about it, but the first one is something that I would like to fix it.
I do not know were to look at for a solution, and I am open to sugestions
Thank you |

You said you used the same config. Did you run "make oldconfig" first, before "make" or "make menuconfig"? Cause, I've noticed that some options have different names in vanilla and patchsets - like love's. Are you sure you have compiled in ACPI (or the older APM, whichever you use)?

hey Marctraider
If You using rc3-love1 with Low Latency Destkop Mode , the preempting level is the same as rc6-love1
also CPU scheduler (with non-SMP) & IO schedulers are the same .
thx for the support

yeap as galiza_ceive said
there are 2 "power-down" patches in love. please try to reverse this patches :
in this order :
1) http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.12-rc6/2.6.12-rc6-mm1/broken-out/properly-stop-devices-before-poweroff-fix.patch
2)
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.12-rc6/2.6.12-rc6-mm1/broken-out/properly-stop-devices-before-poweroff.patch
I hope this helps
cheers

I used the config that I have from rc3-love1, and yes I did run make menuconfig to check for new things in the kernel.
Fallow:
I applied the two patches in the order you suggested but it did not help |

I always do "make oldconfig" before menuconfig, just to be sure that I don't miss anything.

I just built this new version last night and it's been behaving well and feeling fine. Thanks for the good work!

Great work its been running fine.
This is the most responsive Gentoo system I have ever used and I am very impressed with it. |

ok, after a week of intensiv testing i must say, that there is something wrong with usb.
First Problem: Everytime, i start up the pc, i am not able to use the mouse. it does not move the pointer nor is the pc reacting on an mouse-click. I have to restart the pc again, to get it work.
Second Problem: I am not longer able to mount my digicam. on the same pc with another kernel, i am able tu mount it. here i am not, because the pc diddnt detect the camera.
any hints?

It runs somehow strange, by heavy diskload the system becomes unresponsive somehow, though -rc5 is all right, and i have had some problems with Input/Output errors on one file, which could be due to the hard disk, but the thing was very strange. It was only one file and after some time or with mc I could read it without errors and smartctl showed only something about aborted transaction or sth like this, which could be sth with the scheduller. And I don't have this error with -rc5. I'll try the 2.6.12 release to see if there are the same problems as with the -rc6

Is there something else that I need to configure to fix this minor problem

In theory with cfq should be no problems. I think this can be a dvd problem. cd/dvd-rom isnt configured optimal (dma,etc.) - hdparm ? but is just like "maybe" Filesystem isnt in high usage in this situation. maybe souns buffer for the player is too low . or just try also another kernel (2.6.12-love1) or something staircase based.
cheers.

however why ppl using rc6-love1, 2.6.12-love1 is the latest stable and it works good.

It could probably teach the rock a thing or two about stability.

Yesterday, I emerged 2.6.12-love1. It could be the DVD player, because when I listen to music I do not have this problem, unless the hdd is being used. But, when you compile a program you do not use the hdd but the CPU, and the scheduler should take care of it. Shouldn't it?
Anyway, in kernel 2.6.12-love1 I enabled "Genetic Library" and "Genetic Anticipatory I/O scheduler (EXPERIMENTAL)", I hope they help. |

I have never any skips anymore since 2.6.12-love1
| Code: |
Default IO Scheduler (CFQ3) ---> │ │
│ │ [*] Genetic Library │ │
│ │ Preemption Model (Preemptible Kernel (Low-Latency Desktop)) ---> │ │
│ │ [*] Preempt The Big Kernel Lock │ │
│ │ Timer frequency (1000 HZ) ---> [
|
Correct support for all my hardware in kernel.
Using the EMU10K1 sound chip (Soundblaster Live! 5.1 Digital) with hardware mixing
Harddisks and Cdrom(dvd's) optimized with hdparm.
xmms, ALSA output plugin, Buffer time 10000ms, period time 100ms, Thread buffer ms 6000, Multi-Thread mode, mmap.
And well, much more to tell, just a little tweaking.
But I can tell you that with high harddisk usage, only with this kernel it works great.
With other kernels like cko and gentoo-sources when i had full hd load it skipped all the way. (I began to think my IDE chipset driver was flawed in a way)
(Not only music skipped then, but my whole system, X etc)
