Damn. I knew it had to be something obvious. That's all it was - I had been using vga=0x31B instead of vga=0x31A. Once I changed that, it started working right away. ThanksDinini wrote:You are using the vesafb in 16 bit mode right?
For the moment 16bit is the only supported color depth.
That may be for the best... there were a number of fixes on LKML. And hey, my sound card doesn't want to work with mm4, as stated:antisthenes wrote:-mm5 is out. I don't really know why so quickly, but there it is.
Nothing ubercritical.

Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option?

udev will be ready, hell I used ithe 005 release and it ran just fine - I have great hopes for udev as a devfs replacement,agrippa_cash wrote:It's my understanding that devfs will not be a part of the 2.7 kernels. I assume that this would mean that Gentoo users will need a special patch to run ANY post 2.6 kernel. That is, unless udev, is ready by then, which I doubt. If thats is the case then I think we'll end up with more than just Love-Sources to choose from (though love-sources rocks).
The patch fails are all safe to just merge manually, I think.generic_write_checks(inode, file, off, &count, 0); becomes
generic_write_checks(file, off, &count, 0);
after you disconnect your camera. I am still having issues, but this http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=53537&start=75 thread has been helpful. My love 4 is working fine. Vivat bssteph & Lovechild!kill -HUP `pidof devfsd`
I'd like an option like --iron-man (or something like that *g*), which does an emerge -P love-sources and removes everything that emerge won't. BTW, will make install backup your old kernel?antisthenes wrote:Tell me of anything I can do to improve it.
