Am I stupid for not finding an ebuild for this version?

You go home to reboot? Wus, only time I do that is when there's the possiblity of the router not coming back up && my g/f is in the house and hence might need the net.

Yes. ;) j/k

http://www.linuxmall.us/~lovepatch/love ... -r1.ebuild
- vs. _ made the ebuild come before the _rcs in the dir sort.

w00t!

Also, a qauestion. In the earlier 2.6 kernels there was a problem with using the apm --suspend on an IBM ThinkPad. Anyway, fortunately, since I tried love-sources-2.6.3_rc1-r1, it has been fixed. Out of curiosity, was this a patch or is it part of 2.6.3?

Also, I was having some trouble with Hotplug... It would segfault at line 4478, I think. Somewhere around that line. It would show some tracebacks and stuff. Is there a log that shows all the messages shown when botting up?

Thanks, Stu.

EDIT: Also, you know what would be awesome? Just make a love-sources-latest ebuild that just fetches and installs the latest patches.

Hehehehe, I'm not so bold...actually, I'm running into some snafus in getting it compiled....I'm gonna keep playin with it...

...Plus I let some friends ssh to my box from their work so they can get into IRC. So, I don't wanna hose them either.

Stu L Tissimus · Post by **Stu L Tissimus** » Wed Feb 18, 2004 4:39 pm

Also, could you name love-sources-2.6.3-r2 "42"?

What errors are you having getting it compiled?

"42" is too obvious of a name. It doesn't have that hint of insanity that most of my release names have.

Here's what I'm getting...I've tried this with and without ACPI in the kernel...

GEN .version
CHK include/linux/compile.h
UPD include/linux/compile.h
CC init/version.o
LD init/built-in.o
LD .tmp_vmlinux1
arch/i386/kernel/built-in.o(.text+0xcd52): In function `acpi_apic_setup':
: undefined reference to `smp_found_config'
arch/i386/kernel/built-in.o(.text+0xcd5b): In function `acpi_apic_setup':
: undefined reference to `clustered_apic_check'
make: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1

I've tried some of my .config tricks (non of which are very impressive

) and it's still not workin. My next thought is to try a whole new .config...

steel300 · Post by **steel300** » Wed Feb 18, 2004 4:45 pm

You need to enable

Code: Select all

Processor type and features  --->
       [*] Local APIC support on uniprocessors
       [*]   IO-APIC support on uniprocessors

It's a new APIC thing

cpu · Post by **cpu** » Wed Feb 18, 2004 4:47 pm

What with nForce2 APIC problems ? Because there is no patch included for this problems... in 2.6.3-love1 relase notes I mean

Stu L Tissimus · Post by **Stu L Tissimus** » Wed Feb 18, 2004 4:51 pm

Hmmm... Good point, Too obvious. How about "Revenge of the kittens"?

They should have already been included in mm. I would also *highly* recommend updating your bios.

Revenge of the kittens has a nice ring to it. We'll see what mood I'm in when the new love-sources is released.

Ahhh, saaaweeeet. Much better.

Thanks! I feel kinda dumb...is there something I should have read so that I'd have known that?

I didn't know about it. I have an SMP so those are enabled by default. neenee had the same problem on the IRC channel and I grepped the right files for it (that sounded disgusting. I really should stop doing perverted things with the kernel source)

Stu L Tissimus · Post by **Stu L Tissimus** » Wed Feb 18, 2004 5:00 pm

Well, other candidates for the name are "When Republicans Strike" and "Joey the Glow in the dark Goatboy".

I really like "Joey the Glow in the Dark Goatboy" but again, we'll see what mood I'm in for the new release.

Hehe, ok good, then I don't feel so bad.

Thanks again!

Er, the APIC options have been around for a while... have been for as long as I can remember 2.5 in fact (my memory goes before then). And I've been enabling them since I got the Athlon XP. Dunno why they'd be a requirement in the kernel now though. *shrug*
