2.6.5-love2 "Pasadena Junior High"

[OneOfOne]

yet again another new love.
this is mainly a sync to -mm2, added supermount, orinico, Con's Autoswappiness, and Nick's VM work (NOT the scheduler).

Sorry if this question has already been asked (and I'm sure it has), but why aren't love-sources in the portage tree?

[edit] Oh, and does the IteRaid support work in 64 bit mode (Athlon64)?

[edit] Oh, and does the IteRaid support work in 64 bit mode (Athlon64)?

Check the forums for poll on love-sources being in portage. You'll find everything you need there.

I'm not sure if IteRaid support works in 64bit mode. Alas, I can not test it. If you had a spare AMD64 lying around, I'd be glad to test it for you (hint hint)

[TRx]

Gonna try love-sources for first time. I've been using -mm since I started with gentoo (10 months) and i would laike to try something "beyond"

I hope they wont let me down

[c0bblers]

Hi,
Just thought I'd point out that they've updated the (often dodgy) udf packet writing patch, at http://w1.894.telia.com/~u89404340/patches/packet/2.6/

Cheers,
James

[danone]

compiled like charm:-) will restart now with new baselayout..brb
EDIT:runing like charm - btw on boot it takes a approx 10sec longer while usb mouse found

add following to grub if you are using nvidiacard

should fix your problem

Well after applying the scsi patch everything is working fine. I did however notice something slighly odd just before I upgraded to this kernel. I was running 2.6.5-love1 and the system had been up for a few hours (just normal usage) when I noticed that the performace was really bad. I ran top to try and get to the bottom of it and noted that pdflush a root owned process was taking about 98% of the cpu time I left it for a while to see if it would fix itself, It did not. Anyone know what caused this ?

Well im gonna try and run this new kernel for a bit see if the same thing happens.

Nick's scheduler will be in the next release. I'm working on it as we speak.

This are good news Steel:-) The kernel works fine...but I don't get the feeling of performance as it was with Nick Sched..in 2.6.5-rc1-love2.

The driver have always been in usb devices, this is simply an update.
It depends on both USB and ATM support.
one more thing, it doesnt work on > 2.6.5-rc1 nor hotplug > 20040105, could you try and tell me if it works or not? modem_run goes D state.

2.6.5-love3 aka "Your Tea Is Ready Mrs Onassis" is available at http://www.public.iastate.edu/~jpcox/

The only things that have changed is the addition of Nick's Scheduler and the scsi fix. Download and enjoy the Nick goodness.

Great work guys! Just to know, is there any reason the iteraid patch was taken out in the last releases?

Tnx,
