You still need to disable 4k stacks. Nothing has changed..

I would be happy if you include the USB HID Mouse Polling patch.
You can get it from here:

@Gentii - thanx. i haven't come across the situation before that reiser4 option got disabled due to 4k stack on... (besides it was on by default, i didn't touch it)

and here comes another question:
Performance monitoring counters support -> Processor type and features -> Performance-monitoring counters support

is there a userspace util for this in portage?

Joecool made an update to np that will apply to 2.6.9-rc4-mm1. I revised it a little so that it will apply over 2.6.9-rc4-love1-pre2 =). If you guys would like to test it.

Thanks joecool.

Yep ht is broken, you have to disable it in the kernel (smt). It works fine with SMP only.
Did anyone notice a difference using the same kernel with the smt scheduler and without ? I don't think there is a (big) difference. I'm not even sure that the smt sched helps.

The first few messages sound a bit odd - it sounds nothing like what the line is meant to.
You might want to have a look at that line - I had one that failed compile on me a while back because the line had corrupted.

I thought that to, but now I realise that make mrproper doesn't fix that.. doh, thanks for bringing that up
