Ok, I found the patch which fuX0red it up, it was block-cleanups-add-kconfig-default-iosched-submenu.patch.
Anyways it's running now, nice work.
PS: Do you have any good advice on .config settings performance wise?

Having trouble getting 1920x1200 working with vesafb-tng ... my console and wm both default to 1600x1200, even though I chose 1920x1200 in the kernel options...

just wanted to report that this acid kernel is working great for me, finally I can use something other than 2.6.12 nitro 5. I updated my reiser4 partition to 1.0.5 but now I have noticed that certain applications take forever to open and load. FOr example, gedit takes around 40 seconds just to start becoming reponsive. Other applications are unaffected. ipw2200 also seems to be fixed with this release, except for the fact that 2.6.14 reverted back to and old version of ipw2200 that doesn't support monitoring.

btw, i really miss the usb timing patch. my trackpad doesn't feel as good with the default USB reporting rate. Same goes for mouse.

I will use this as my main kernel and report back how things are going. Nice work!

Hi there,

How do I enable the use of the 0(1) scheduler it does not appear to be showing up in the io schedulers list?

Hi,

Ndiswrapper 1.4 fails to compile against acid-sources, so I'll stay with ck-sources. The error is something about failing to re-define ktree in one of the ndiswrapper source files.

Cheers,
JP

Ok, i now this is kind a relative , and i gotta test it first, but not much time at the moment, what do you guys think are the best faster and most kick ass sources :

- Nitro sources
- CK sources ( the ones i use )
- MM sources

Hi there,

I have noticed that with acid1 sources I am getting alot of application hangs. Especially from multi threaded applications such as amarok. I was using the nitro sources with the staircase cpu scheduler beforehand and was not experiencing the same issues.

Also had some complete system lock ups.

I have tried playing with IO schedulers aswell and still getting alot more jerky behaviour than even vanila 2.6.14

I'm going to revert back to a patchset that implements a different scheduler for the timebeing.. at least on my setup the 0(1) scheduler does not seem to be a good match. (I thought it was an IO scheduler, initially... my bad)
