Still having problems setting the WEP key on my ipw2100. I haven't had a chance to try a 2.6.14 non-nitro kernel though.

I am back from a weekend @ my school, in which we produce our pupil magazine. My machine didnt have any problems from thu-sun, and it was allways on heavy load (except when i was asleep). I was running windows in a vmware, had a samba fileserver and had to do lots of picture editing and layout in the vm. And i was really happy about the performance.

I think you are right tiger, this is really the best release of your kernel. Thanks for your work.

I am using gentoo with ipw2200 nitro sources - no problem so far. The only thing - I had to emerge external ieee80211 and ipw2200 - the card in my TP42 is based on some revision of chipset not supported by in-kernel driver (gives me fault on firmware loading attempt). Suspends, resumes, WEP key is set - never tryed for WPA though, since my home AP supports WEP only.

it's probably because for some reason the 2.6.14 kernel uses an older version of the ipw2200 which requires the version 1.0 firmware from ipw2200.sf.net

i don't understand why the kernel maintainers reverted to an older version, but oh well. Just put the firmware in /lib/firmware/. I have all the versions there so that I don't have to worry about it.

Good choice, afaik, vmware is pretty much the best choice atm.

BTW, Your english is ok, not everyone here is a native en. speaker....

I have compiled the kernel without ipw2100 or ieee80211 and emerged them separately and wireless is now working fine.

I'd love to try reiser4 out on a secondary hard disk, but apparently mount.reiser4 doesn't exist...

Code: Select all

sprsd gcooper # which mount.reiser4
which: no mount.reiser4 in (/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin)

I built reiser4 into the kernel statically and emerged reiser4progs as well.

built the kernel and started it up. alsa detects soundcard and looks normal at dmesg but no sound in kde. did any one else experince this?

Tiger683 · Post by **Tiger683** » Wed Nov 30, 2005 10:20 am

Unmute it in the mixer.

git alsa has probably different names for some controls...

Hey I just compiled this beauty and its working damn nice on my T43 here: Swsusp, fbsplash, wireless (madwifi), ati-drivers and last but not least fingerprint sensor

But does anyone here know how I can enable swsusp2 resume informations? When I resume I don't get a progress bar or anything similar...

The support for graphical frontend has been removed from the kernel.
You have to emerge a userspace package now to have it, no idea what it's called though :/

hmm there are some words about something like userui, I'm not sure if that's what I am looking for...

Thanks anyway for the patchset, it semms to be great

Message only to report that the nitro flows within a Turion ML34 hp nx6125 with 1 gig of RAM and a happy gentoo user.

Hey could it be that it is not possible to disable the noop scheduler? Is it the default one? How can easily change my drives using the cfq one?

Thanks

priestjim · Post by **priestjim** » Thu Dec 01, 2005 9:31 pm

Noop does not perform scheduling, it just queues the I/O requests. It is the default behavior for all non-hard disk block devices unless specified otherwise in for each block device in /sys/block/[block device]/queue/scheduler.

Yes it cannot be disabled.

Hello!

Great job. I love the nitro kernel. But a question: does it have an official home, and could you a bit more explain the configuration for a fast desktop system (and as far as possible with such a beauty - stable

Some small handbook for Nitro would be nice.

Would be great. Great job you've done.

Phlogiston · Post by **Phlogiston** » Sun Dec 04, 2005 2:59 pm

I'm sorry I'm not using this kernel any longer, because software suspend is not working all the time, it does refuse to resume. I don't have this problems with acid2, so I'm back to acid for the moment.
