Not exactly - there are three states
- OFF: disabled via Fn+F2
- Blinking: Negotiation with AP
- ON: Connected

Here is what var/log/messages reports after a cycle Fn+F2 / Fn+F2

I don't know whether the LED would finish to blink sometime if no AP can be seen.

For me it works with kernel built-in ipw2200 and the patch mentioned on both
- linux-2.6.17-gentoo-r8 (ipw2200 v1.1.1)
- linux-2.6.18-gentoo-r2 (ipw2200 v1.1.2)
Need to mention that 2.6.18 needed the wpa_supplicant parameter
ap_scan=2
in order to connect to my WPA-PSK AP (SE515DSL).

OK with the patch it worked well for me, too (besides I could not see it blinking when negotiating - but anyway ^^).

You are using kernel 2.6.18? This busstard didn't work for me cause it didn't want to see my DVD-RW (I use libata and friends). Did you have this problem too? Is 2.6.19 working for you?

DVD works w/ 2.6.18 after an oldconfig. For 2.6.19 you have to consider the libata changes - but it works as well.
However, I have an issue with both 2.6.18/19. I can't completely resume about every 10th STR. I have not investigated further yet but the call-stack shows a race in char/vt.c. So it might come from my suspend-script (chvt), vesa-tng, vbetool or what ever. Because I'm lazy I've switched back to linux-2.6.17-gentoo-r8 what runs really stable.
If you have problems with your DVD it might also come from the latest udev update about 2 weeks ago. What error messages do you get?

Hey Guys,

I had to reinstall Gentoo and now 3D hardware acceleration is no longer working.

Can please anybody with an ait-card and working 3D hardware accelecation post his xorg.conf, make.conf, and kernel-config.

See also http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-523656.html

Thank you.

It is not a udev problem cause it was here before the udev update. The error messages I get at boot:

This is most likely a problem with the "improved" libata error handling in the kernel >= 2.6.18. Maybe it is specific to my DVD drive and or SATA bridge. Nevertheless, could you pls post your sata kernel config? Thanks in advance!

Yes, it's very likely a problem with the new parallel ATA merge to libata. However, there is currently no need to follow this path in case it doesn't work. http://kernelnewbies.org/Linux_2_6_19 Btw, the improved libata was introduced with 2.6.19 not with 2.6.18 I think.

OK if you have _everything_ as a module (if not build-in) it would be helpful to have your output of lsmod and/or your /etc/modules-autoload.d/kernel-2.6.

So it might come from my suspend-script (chvt), vesa-tng, vbetool or what ever. Because I'm lazy I've switched back to linux-2.6.17-gentoo-r8 what runs really stable.

I've found the following:
- do not use vbetool for suspend/resume restore of video-state
- no need to chvt - an "echo mem > /sys/power/state" is sufficient
- X.org needs latest xf86-video-i810-1.7.3 to resume w/o vbetool
- vbetool is only needed for switching the backlight on after opening the lid
- xorg.conf needs "ReducedBlanking"

Now STR works stable with both 2.6.18&19.

I also would like to mention that beryl/AiGLX works pretty well on this machine - including STR. I found it quite interesting that even with 3D animations waiting in the background the overall current consumption does not increase significantly (if at all). Status while writing this text:

Thanks for that news - I tried Ubuntu for two weeks or so now but looks like I will install Gentoo again (the backup). I hope Linux 2.6.20 will finaly solve my libata DVD problem ...

Thanks. What changes do I need to make for the ATI Mobility x300?

Looks like nobody is watching this thread anymore - because the I6K works so well in the meantime?

I can't help you with an ATI xorg.conf. Using the forum's search ends up with a lot of hits like this. There seem to be other interesting links outside the gentoo-forum like this. Consider also other models than I6K, like D610 and other chips like X700 as well.
Good luck.

Hey guys, i'm working on getting i8kmon to work properly on my Dell Latitude D510. I was wondering which conf should i set, because /etc/conf.d/i8k has too few options and /etc/i8kmon is just great. So starting the service on /etc/init.d will read conf.d file for sure and start i8kmon as a daemon, but will it read the /etc/i8kmon file too? Is there a way to see if it's working properly? Thanks.

Shalom!

NO idea how you managed to get i8k module to even load as modprobe i8k force and insmod i8k force or any variation of it = no luck for me on any kernel after 2.6.21 , even have i8k in /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6

I have managed to get it working in a rpm type distro and using i8kutils and i8krellm + gkrellm it managed to properly control my fan speed for left and right fan after "modprobe i8k force" and then running gkrellm.

I have i8k.ko.gz and i8k.ko in /usr/src/linux/kernel/drivers/char and all sub folder's in /usr/src/linux/

PLZ help. geting i8k loaded.
