2.6.12-rc4-no2 Too Bleeding Edge for you ?
I Backed out a few patches so that you don't have to use the nvidia-kernel ebuild we provide. I dropped NVIDIA_KERNEL_HACK.patch due to this.
The one from gentoo portage should be sufficient.I added xbox-sources back in It seems to compile fine if APM Support and CONFIG_KEXEC is disabled.
Thanks to predatorfreak we have a new version of unionfs Filesystem. I'm also working on a staircase 11.2 cpu sched release for those of you that
want the newer version.
[CHANGES]
Note for Nvidia UsersYou no Longer Need to use the Ebuild provided. The Nvidia-kernel ebuild from portage should be sufficient.
Code: |
+ 2.6.12-rc4-mm2-xbox1.bz2 | Please note that this is experimental. (Make sure apm support is not enabled in power management.)
+ patch-unionfs-1.0.12a.diff | New version of UnionFS Filesystem thanks to predatorfreak
+ Made a 11.2 Staircase version of no-sources.
- NVIDIA_KERNEL_HACK.patch | This changes _GPL symbols to normal symbols.
|
[Staircase]
I'm using Staircase 11.2 on for 2.6.12-rc4-no2 release along with:
schedrange.diff |* Infrastructure for more policies */
schediso2.12.diff |/* SCHED_ISO for soft realtime scheduling */
schedbatch2.7.diff /* SCHED_BATCH for idle scheduling */
smp-nice-support.diff
[CPUSCHED]
Code: |
{ There are 5 available cpu scheduler you can choose from , either from the kernel config or by using cpusched="nicksched" in /boot/grub/grub.conf
(assuming you are using grub) as a kernel parameter.
Available options are:
cpusched="nicksched"
cpusched="staircase"
cpusched="zaphod"
cpusched="spa_no_frills"
cpusched="ingo"
}
|
[Nicksched]
{
Also available is the the option to change sched_base_timeslice variable.The recommended setting is 64 for desktop. In an earlier release I used
32 which didn't work too well. Tasks that needed a longer timeslice were not responding too well. limewire and amarok to name a few. 64 seems to
work very well. It is also what Nick piggins himself recommends for desktop. Remember you can also change sched_base_timeslice via /sys/cpusched/nicksched/
example echo "64" > sched_base_timeslice.
}
[NVIDIA]
{
You must use the nvidia-kernel.tar.bz2 provided. This ebuild adds class-api_nvidia.patch.txt to the nvidia-kernel which you will need
in order to play with the latest mm-sources. We take care of the kernel side with export-class-api_kernel.patch.txt using NVIDIA_KERNEL_HACK.patch
that the no-sources team broke-out for conveniance.
}
Patches

+plugsched-4.0-for-2.6.12-rc3-mm2.patch | Multiple cpu schedulers.

As Most of you know I strongly disagree with most of Mr Bush's decisions. I'm am not for another war. I just know with his stupidity the chance of NK being next are not as slim as I may think they are. But thats neither here nor there. This is probably subject for another topic in off the wall or something.
I apologize for the name just was in my head at the time. |

I agree, the name is okay. Some people need to lighten up a bit though. I mean, come on....its just the name of a kernel. Its not a headline in newsweek, you know . _________________ Administrator
