Uncomment the performance control option (just after firmware option I think). It's a new thing in the mm patch and is on by default.

yes that was it - thx :-)

What exactly do I have to do to reverse this patch? Do I need to add a line to the ebuild? I ask this because looking at the patch it is wanting to look at linux-2.6.7-rc3-mm1 and when I try to `patch -R < reiser.....` it doesn't have any of those files to look at. So I am assuming I'm doing something wrong.


to remove the reiser4patch
Code:

cd /usr/src/linux-2.6.7-rc3-love1
bzcat /path/to/reiser4-2.6.7-rc3-mm1-2004.06.09.patch.bz2|patch -p1 -R


Code:

mars /usr/src/linux/ # bzcat /usr/src/reiser4-2.6.7-rc3-mm1-2004.06.09.patch.bz2|patch -p1 -R
patching file arch/alpha/kernel/init_task.c
patching file arch/arm/kernel/init_task.c
patching file arch/arm26/kernel/init_task.c
patching file arch/cris/kernel/process.c
The next patch, when reversed, would delete the file arch/cris/kernel/process.c.orig,
which does not exist!  Ignore -R? [n]


I am confused about this, what should I do?

Hi, I get this
Code:

In file included from drivers/ide/pci/siimage.c:34:
drivers/ide/pci/siimage.h:51: error: unknown field `vendor' specified in initializer
drivers/ide/pci/siimage.h:51: warning: initialization makes pointer from integer without a cast

make[3]: *** [drivers/ide/pci/siimage.o] Error 1
make[2]: *** [drivers/ide/pci] Error 2
make[1]: *** [drivers/ide] Error 2
make: *** [drivers] Error 2


Ive checked and that part of the file is identical with the siimage.h from 2.6.6-rc3-love4. Also since I don't have a 3512 could I get away with just commenting it out ot something?

Anyone else having problems with the advansys driver in the latest -mm's? It's working fine in vanilla, but -love is unable to find any filesystem on the partitions :?

I see lots of changes in the advansys.c file, so i was wondering whether anyone else is seeing this? Nothing on lkml though :(

Error when compiling:

ACPI is disabled in the kernel, any ideas?

/me beats DaMouse with a winme CD
@Peacefaker using nvidia and it works fine, you need to disable regparm and 4k stacks.
@tsr you need to enable ACPI, looks like its broken in -mm
@jassi they just don't apply.

I got this too, with 2.6.7-rc3-mm1. Turning ACPI on resolves it for me. Tho we should not need to do this. And not all systems work well with ACPI in the kernel. Maybe getting rid of bk-acpi.patch is another solution, but I'm not sure how to do that and am too lazy to learn right now

It does feel snappier. I guess it is the mm scheduler maybe instead of nicks??? I recently switched from cfq to anticipitory so that might be the reason. Don't know if both are the reason, but anyway good work!!!!

its the cpu scheduler change, because i notice a speed increase on both anticipatory and cfq.

everyone getting lock ups with reiser4 while the system is under heavy load try this :
renice -15 `pgrep hda1` (where hda1 is your reiser4 partition)
and please report back.
also dont renice your X with this release.

Ok here it goes for me... This are my issues:
1) Have a wacom volito and an Logitech optical mouse + keyboard hub with a 2.6.4 kernel everything works as it should be, with the 2.6.7-rc3-love1 it gets fucked up...i get /dev/input/mice and /dev/input/mouse0 and /dev/input/mouse1 but only my volito works ok...
2) Bootsplash is gone...there is only the menu tittle there...nada...
3) Booting with qingy just leaves the system hung...
Any ideas?
P.S Bootsplash is 0.6-r8 for some funny reason 0.6.1 wont work...i tested it with 2.6.4 and my mouse went crazy (maybe thats also the problem with issue 1 didn't test it on 2.6.7 after the downgrade)

Thanks for the lock-up tip. I was getting all sorts of lockups when compiling stuff. I didn't know what it was. Whatever that renice thing did seemed to fix the problem.

EDIT: Nevermind. It froze up on me during the merge of UT2004.

that's weird, because afaik ut2k4 doesnt do much cpu usuge while emerging.
does it lock up while emerging glibc/coreutils/kde*?

working here. the new r4 seems to work, bootsplash is working, nvidia is ok...

The only thing that isn't working, and this is an odd one, is Qingy. Instead of launching the app, I get an empty framebuffer console with a blinking cursor. It won't let me change to VT6 either, which hosts an old fashioned agetty.

On the other hand if I boot without the framebuffer, while qingy still won't work, I can at least switch consoles and log in normally.

Apart from that, everything works nicely
