Thx everyone and if you like good kernels,
help me and iphitus make beyond-sources better.

Thx for keeping Nitro a bit longer alive (than seppe :wink: ). You did a great job!
Let's see what beyond-sources will bring... Look luck so far! 8 ...

2) Alliance

greetz and cya there

I've also noticed this with seppe, any time I try to give any feedback only for the sake of having the kernel improved, it gets ignored while other junk does not Not really, it's not because I don't always reply on every comment that I ignore it. If more than 50% of the users says that feature X ...

Does this version of Nitro have the staircase scheduler? Unless I'm blind I can't seem to find it.

Also, I tried it out and everything seems to work fine but responsiveness in X is very slow compared to previous Nitro patchsets. That is why I am wondering which CPU scheduler is in use.

Yes, the ...

Not yet, sorry. I'm pretty busy these days for my work. But there is a very little chance that I make a 2.6.13.2-nitro2 in my oh so precious weekend. But next week I certainly don't have the time for it. I'll see what I can do this weekend, but I don't promise anything.

Also, Does this have the bootsplash patch? If so, where is it? If not, how/where could i get that applied? I'm new to getting the bootsplash setup, so those may seem like stupid questions. Thanks.
Nope, but we have gensplash (aka fbsplash). See [url=http://dev.gentoo.org/~spock/projects/gensplash ...

What does this fix for us? The logo errors? The software suspend 2 errors? Something else?

It fixes the troubles on AMD64 platforms

Couple of comments/complaints:

1) New menuconfig colors - ewwww! How can I change them back?
2) What happened to that very handy, helpful, obvious Nitro Menu from 2.6.12-nitro5?
3) Standard Layer7 patches against it don't work once again :(

Seppe: I have a few questions.
On topic:
When do you think the new 2.6.13.2-nitro ebuild will be released?

Off topic:
Would you do me a favor and send me a tarball of your geekchiks directory?
What program did you use to let you do 3d switching of workspaces?
Edit: found the 3ddesktop for the ...

Nope, it's going to be 2.6.13.2-nitro1. It's a different Linux kernel base(2.6.13.2 instead of 2.6.13.1), so I reset the "nitro" version numbering.
I just thought it was odd, since Con Kolivas (or anyone else) doesn't reset his patches numbering with every sub-version release.
The current ck5 ...

the ebuild has a wrong naming, but it is the right one.
I also noticed that. I renamed nitro-sources-2.6.13.1-r1.ebuild to nitro-sources-2.6.13.2-r1.ebuild and it seemed to be getting the new one. Is this correct or is there anything else I have to do?
Nope, that's correct. I forgot to rename the ...

2.6.13.2-nitro1 is on it's way. I'll probably upload it in a few hours. New stuff: updated CK, updated software suspend 2, configurable hid mouse polling patch and the famous nitro logo.
That would be 2.6.13-nitro2, isn't it? Why keep the name nitro1?
I mean, 2.6.13.2-nitro1 is just your previous ...

Nope, Im running a 3200+. I don't have suspend2 enabled in my kernel.

- bob_111
And have you the standard software suspend enabled? If so, try to disable it.


I'm trying out new nitro now. What about options for the different shedulers? Or is there only one available now?

Thanks

There is ...

Yeah, what's wrong with this release and AMD64? Are there any problems with it? Will nitro2 fix it?

edit the ebuild and add ~amd64 to KEYWORDS, so it reads like this:

KEYWORDS="~x86 ~amd64"


I can't update the ebuild now myself, I'm at work where FTP is blocked :roll:

I can't tell when 2.6 ...

Why you kicked out my logo hack?

I'll test the release maybe tomorrow. Will post a report then.

I didn't kicked out the logo. I just didn't found a patch for it, but I'll make one for the next release with the files you provided on your webspace.

Nice to hear that it works fine. Now I'm going to sleep, because I'm a bit drunk atm

Also, I noticed you don't have the usb fast mouse polling patch added as the 12-nitro5 had. Would it be possible to include this?

Thanks.

I added it as an addon patch. Copy/paste from what I added to the first post in this thread:

Well, I'm not sure either. But I have a patch ready if you want. I'll upload it asap as an addon.

I get the following errors when doing make && make modules_install

It's out, see in this thread . Please note that it's still under testing status. Reiser4 is still untested and so it's always possible that 2.6.13.1-nitro1 will totally b0rk up your Reiser4 partition. Watch the thread for updates .. when the "STATUS: TESTING" leaves in the threadtitle, then it ...
