this one is much better than the last one it seems 
one thing that i wanted to know was how to use the nvidiafb??
as in the syntax and if there were any advantages of it.

So yeah, I'm at school now with my laptop... and usually in the morning I unplug my logitech mx1000 from my box, without turning on the monitor, so I can use it at school.. and when I get to school this morning, woah, where's my webserver... ssh server... everything...
Now I know where it is... oopsing at home... sigh.
Does oopsing usually stay at 100% cpu usage, or is it 0%? I don't want to come home to a 66 deg C processor... |

pass rootflags=nopseudo to disable metas/ for root reiser4

Do i need to do this if i have reiser4 on / ? Thanks.
Also during make i get this:
| Code: |

the nvidiafb isnt worth your time because if you use nvidiafb, nvidia-kernel wont work because they fight over the card

I think you need to set the mouse polling rate. At least that's what gave me an error.
You can set it in the kernel menu under the USB HID settings. |

Thanks for the reply i got it to work, are there any "safe" configurations need for reiser4, besides disabling the 4k stacks?

If You want to complie it , You must set something to USB HID Mouse Interrupt Polling Interval.
Without any setting is wrong.
-->> BAD example 
| Code: |
() USB HID Mouse Interrupt Polling Interval (NEW)
|
-->> GOOD example
| Code: |
(2) USB HID Mouse Interrupt Polling Interval (NEW)

-----------------------------------------------------
i'm not really good at this stuff, but i tried love-sources 2.6.11-r1 and on some heavier compilations (those lasting longer then 25min) my system would go into complete halt. CPU was extremely hot at that moment (i cannot tell you exactly, but the very air inside of the box was at least 40C, which is absolutely rare for me). it happened numerous times on love-sources. gentoo-dev-sources work all right all the time, however.
i'm not an overclocker. i don't do things like that. i have an 1.7Ghz celeron (pentium4-compatible cpu)
i did not use clock modulation features in kernel config, the config was the same as in my gentoo-dev-sources 2.6.10 kernel. i only enabled love-specific features.
so,umm, what did i do wrong?
oh, by the way - i cannot get framebuffer to work with love-sources, but it works on 2.6.10-r6 with the same setup. (i mean links -driver fb complains that device /dev/fb0 does not exist on love-sources, but it works with gentoo-dev-2.6.10-r6 (and older dev-2.6 as well)). (i'm using udev btw.) |
hmmm, You can try none-genetic nicksched - maybe the temperature is releated to it .
and feel free to change the sources from love hehe maybe exactly just O(1) based line gentoo-dev-sources is better for U .
about fb dev.

@DrWoland : BIG thanks for the picture - will be much easier now ...
about this nvidiafb - I added it just as test. I tested if this works and don`t broke vesafb.
compilled fine , alone vesafb working and also nvidiafb - so decided to add it to love for testing
I`m going to expand my knowledge abouit it also - now I can
cheers

I'll just stick with deadline as you have recommended. But I'd like to know, how does
deadline perform with multiple heavy I/O operations at once?
Also, has anyone tried benchmarking genetic schedulers versus normal schedulers (both CPU and I/O)?
They feel more responsive, but I'd be interesting to see some numbers. I lack the time to do proper tests. |
this is the of of first answers for the quetion

https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-2053237.html#2053237 this is IMHO and Bollucks said also imporant thing here.

sorry - my funny english - I mean is better to DEACTIVATE this extra genetic nicksched options.
so - for final resume - is better to have they "off"

I seem to have problems with all the 2.6.11 patchsets, nitro, morph, skunk, and also love. I have a P4 and reiser4 could this be the cause?

But do you also have P4? I heard there are problems with SMP, nitro&morph froze on mounting root fs in read/write mode, skunk randomly, love randomly on boot, or at starting X sometimes, i recompiled it without preempt, i'll let you know if anything changes. Thanks for support

Yeah, I figured it out too when my system started freezing at a random point in bootup
Edit: Nvidiafb is also pretty worthless at this point in time, at least with my GeForce 4 4200 64MB. It screws up the screen majorly (still mildly readable) and prevents nvidia-kernel from loading. I turned it back off. I took a picture of it as well and there appears to be a memory addressing issue, I'll post the pic later.

OK, i'll try that too, btw disabling preempt gave me a shock: it booted fine, i loged on, entered mc and when i closed mc someting freeky happend, a text with something like call traceback started scrooling on the tty and it was very fast and it didn't stop, so i had to hard reboot, after that, the kernel wouldn't boot anymore, back on gentoo-dev-sources with reiser4 patch for now, but i'll try disabling the acpi in love, anyway here is my love-config, if anyone could tell me if something is wrong i'd greatly apreciate it. Thanks!
/later, tried without acpi, stoped at a boot script, it does it randomly.

Well thought I would upgrade from rc4-love1 (since that was very good) - compiled fine
Got a "oops" at boot, but it did not lock my system up
Well at teh desktop it started up very jerky but got better ???, things do load faster, but visual are a bit slow (using the nvidiafb - could that be resposnisble)
anyway here is the "oops"

so, first kernel from 2.6.11 family
if i boots and works as expected - cool
if not - not so cool
till now i have all make errors mentioned here
hope ati-drivers will be fine
Edit:
so results after reboot
anything works, pluging/unplugging usb storage works NICE
ati compiles and loads and works NICE
love ROCKS

I thought this was the second love patchset for the 2.6.11 kernel (2.6.11-love1 "We Are The Borg")? Anyway about the ati-drivers, make sure you turn of the direct render manager under device drivers -> character devices. I've had this compiled into other kernels and used the ati-drivers with no problem, but when I tried loading the ati-driver modules with love, it wouldn't work till I got rid of it. I've been using this love release for a day now and have nothing but good things to say about it.
EDIT: Oh nevermind, you were talking about your first 2.6.11 kernel, sorry. Good choice.

this was second try of love sources for me, first try was unsuccessful
after that i worked only on vanilla or gentoo-dev-sources
month ago emerged nitro, but never compiled
these sources works for me "as is"
ofcourse i had to straighten my hands a bit by seting HID device timer
onther reason why love2 - it is based on 2.6.11.2 (as i understood from the post)
