Hello, I need migrato too.

But what to do, if I am using LILO instead GRUB?

Thanks.

Hello,

by the way, I am also disabling "ATA/ATAPI/MFM/RLL support" and enabling "Serial ATA (prod) and Parallel ATA (experimental) drivers"

Before reboot, renaming fstab isnt problem, but what abou LILO :))

boot = /dev/hda >> boot = /dev/sda ???

image = /boot/kernel-2.6.37-ck
root = /dev/hda5 ...

Hi,

I tried to follow this guide, but have problem. Especially, after I say no for CONFIG_IDE in kernel configuration and compiled it, it wasnt possible boot into it (kernel panic):
VFS - cannot open root device "305 or unknown-block(3,5).

I am back in old kernel. Thanks for advice.

# emerge ...

Hi, but we, with some older nvidia card, seems to have wait.

nvidia-drivers-173.14.27 doesnt compile against kernel-2.6.36.

BTW: nvidia-drivers-173.14.28 with xorg-server-1.9 support is out for some time

Code: Select all

# touch /etc/init.d/* /etc/conf.d/*

It will update the timestamps on these files and should remove the error messages.

Yes.

Thanks guys. This really solved my problem.

Could this be due to Fair Group Scheduling?
This is new in CFS in 2.6.24.
By default it appears to give users equal CPU share first and then processes within that user's space get partitioned within that.
I'm going to try turning it off and see how it goes.
Yeah, I disabled it and now my system is ...

Thanks for reply, nutbar21.

Without rebuilding nvidia-drivers against new kernel, booting with new kernel will lead only to console, not X. These basic principles I know.

Hello,

after I upgraded to new kernel series - 2.6.24 (both gentoo-sources and zen-sources), I realized, that my desktop responses are worst then it was with previous versions of kernel. Especially, when system was under load, like emerging in the background (with niceness-19). Web browsing ...

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Same here. We spoke about this in bugzilla: emerge crashes every time I try to use it.
Come on guys there, yours comments are welcome.

I removed blocks in related ebuilds and everything works great. The only thing I am worrying now, what this means: # grep EE /var/log/Xorg.0.log

Finally, Nvidia released new drivers 1.0-8774 with these release highlights:

Ok, now I know it, but is it somewhere mentioned, that there are two config styles and so? I tried only net.example, but there is nothing about iface_eth0.

Not as such, but we only document one style at a time - so if you change from one to the other, changing it all should be a safe bet.

Yeah ...

config_eth0 is supposed to go with routes_eth0
iface_eth0 is supposed to go with gateway

Ok, now I know it, but is it somewhere mentioned, that there are two config styles and so? I tried go only through net.example, but there is nothing about iface_eth0.

Thanks, you saved me a lot of time of searching. For us, who dont know exactly, what gateway is, its hard to find in net.example, that routes_eth0 is what we need.

Hi, my setup for internet connection is same for ages - my IP 192.168.50.13, my gateway 192.168.50.1, netmask 255.255.255.0 and broadcast 192.168.50.255.

It happens with --newuse option? Probably new feature since portage-2.1.1_pre3-r4.
See bug IUSE changes should trigger --newuse.

I am not sure, but probably nobody here know, when it will be really released. But see my previous post , how long it takes between "tagged and released" for previous version.

And about fact, that some distribution already offer kde-3.5.4 packages ... dont understand it much, but Diego bloged about ...

There wasnt button for it in 1.4.1 ... it should be enabled in one of amarok config. But wait a minute, beta for 1.4.2 is planned +- for yeastarday, and 1.4.2 is planned to be released on August 6th.

musicbrainz is disabled in amarok ebuild .. see topic amarok: unsupported engines are forcefully disabled and attached links

Its probably due to new feature of portage - see bug IUSE changes should trigger --newuse.

It was discussed here few days ago - see emerge -uDN wants to re-emerge LOTS of existing packages.

Here are stats for previous versions: (sorry if I did some mistake, I wrote it quickly)
