| Will nitro4 include that inotify patch (posted a few pages back) that fixes the hang on unmounting NTFS problems? |

line 1180
replace
iounmap(info->screen_base);
by
iounmap(vesafb_info->screen_base); |

ipw2x00 are moving from the kernel into ovelay.
Portage has newer versions, and it seems easier to patch them for nitro than to include in the kernel

EDIT: i take it back

with a similar configfile, a mm source makes ~2.2M

deadog: mine is about 2.6 megs... just for reference...

Deadog: would you be so kind to disable any debugging code in the kernel? 
believe me, it will only slow things down and i doubt you need it.
im sure this is the cause of your bzImage oversize.
cheers

EDIT: can anyone confirm tagwar's fix for ipw firmware problem?

fank: now honestly, i cant help you with this little of informations.
the least you could give us is a __LINK___ to your .config (host it somewhere or filter out the disabled options....)
oh, and sorry, i dont speak russian
a quick fix might be to enable power management maybe....

Excellent work! I just booted up, but I can already see that it is MUCH faster (firefox started in 1/2 the usual time).
My system: x86_64, Reiser4 on /, nvidia 6800 on 1.0.7667 drivers, xorg 6.8.2, gcc 3.4.3.
If you want the debug info, all you need to do is ask.
Oh, and I had 0 problems compiling.
EDIT: Tiger, I don't think you need to mention the 4K stacks thing for reiser4 users as it was apparently taken out of the kernel as of 2.6.12.

staircase-sched_timeslice-ctl-w-kconfig.diff
it adds a new option to NiTR0 menu, Basetimeslice for cpu-scheduler.
try setting it to lower values andwatch your desktop FLY ( i currently test value 1 instead of standard 10 )
i need some input before i dare to include it into nitro4.
thx |
I feel stupid, but how do I apply this patch? Haven't done much patching...

(the problem with vmware was that i disabled the paralell port support in the kernel, i think)
atm i got vmware,captive-ntfs,nvidia-7667 working.
this is the best kernel i've ever had
thank you |
Please contact this user to see how he got it working.

Concerning the ipw firmware:
in the kernel docs the location of the firmware is described as /etc/firmware - placed a symlink there after remerge - don't know whether it was the location or the remerge that fixed it...
it's working now
