I have the same problem as port001 - mount tells me /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 isn't a block device. But it is! :)

Any solutions?

I had this problem because the device wasn't linked correctly. I could mount my cdroms with /dev/hdc and /dev/sr0 however, so I made a link of them with ln -sf /dev/ide/host0/bus1/target0/lun0/cd (you have to know your device of course, check how your cdrom is linked now, I think only the 'cd' at the ending isn't there) /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 for example. Just check the links with ls -n of your /dev/cdroms/cdromX , you'll see they are wrong :> ... link them correctly and you made it :)

The most reliable suggestion I have is to compile your required driver as a module then add the name of your driver to /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.5.

It will insert the snd module appropriately.

I'm running 2.4.20, 2.4.20-g2 and 2.5.68 (multiple booting) on two systems now. After you do:

# emerge development-sources
# emerge module-init-tools

your /etc/modules stuff is basically set up for supporting differently named modules for the same device.

Rather nice actually.

Hi i just tried the mm1 of 2.5.68, but check kv of the nvidia-kernel still points to /usr/src/linux instead of /usr/src/linux-beta.
Already tried some symlinks and the solutions that were pointed out after the nvidia-kernel did not emerge.
Does any1 have any idea?
I have also tried editing the ebuild but i can't find the kv=/usr/src/linux :(

Why don't you just point /usr/src/linux-2.5.68-mm1 to /usr/src/linux?

That's what I do :roll:

(btw mm2 is already out)

*edit
Ok ln -sf /usr/src/linux-2.5.68-mm2 /usr/src/linux did the trick mm2 works fine now :D
I used the elevator=cfq also that is too improve desktop behaviour right?
Now i need to fix the sound i compiled it in the kernel(standard emu10k1 card) but xmms seems to work only a hard beep is the result :(

I have also have a card with emu10k1 (Live!), what's your problem? Could you be more specific?

Ok i compiled the sound support+alsa support+plus the emu10k1 in the kernel, emerge alsa-driver fails to compile(which is normal i think).
But when i start xmms it can see it playing but i don't hear sound.
I tried the alsamixer en kmix(which displays nothing) but i think it needs unmuting?
I just tried amixer set Master 100 unmute&&amixer set PCM 100 unmute but that didn't help.

*edit:

xmms console output:

Rick@T|_|X Rick $ xmms

** WARNING **: Buffer time reduced from 500 ms to 371 ms

seems normal..

Oh and i tried this 2:

Rick@T|_|X Rick $ grep audio /proc/pci
grep: /proc/pci: No such file or directory
Rick@T|_|X Rick $

And kde infocenter can't find my sound card??

How can I check that the kernel is receiving its commands from grub config correctly? I have vga=791 and elevator=cqf, but it uses the a.s. evelavator and ignores my fbcon stuff. Using 2.5.68-mm2

Check your kernel config again, there's an option for this somewhere.
Anyway, emerge pciutils && lspci | grep audio should work.

floam: It's cfq, if you didn't make a typo in your post.

Check your dmesg, it has a part where it has the arguments passed by the bootloader to the kernel.

2.5.68-mm2 works great. I can defiantly tell a difference. Although I couldn't get my onboard broadcom 4401 card working because it wouldn't obtain an ip via dhcpcd. I just poped in a trust old 3com and its been great. Also they change a few module names arround on me, that was somewhat annoying, for example usb-ochi changed to ochi-hcd. Also my cdrom works fine, I'm playing audio cd off it right now. Alsa works but I have to unmute it everytime I boot, guess I'll just make an init script, unless anyone knows a cleaner way.

Make sure you compile the OSS compat stuff as well, I had the same problem as you. The solution was to load up an OSS mixer (I just happened to use opmixer). You'll probably find that all your levels at 0. Turn em up and go nuts ;)

After that, you should emerge inject the alsa-driver package, then build alsa-tools. Then you can alsactl store to save your current setup as default.

For a dev-kernel it sure runs bloody fast though :D
Woooohooo It works thx :D

2.5.68-mm2 works fine for me too, but my only problem is xmms skipping while browsing the network. This is sorts annoying as I can't listen to my favorite music while reading news on the network. Anyone found a solution to this yet ? (Using cfq elevator).

regards

PostPosted: Sat Apr 26, 2003 5:42 pm    Post subject: Tip for ADSL users running pppoe in the 2.5.68 kernel. Reply with quote

As was pointed out early on in the thread, you need to add:

devpts /dev/pts devpts defaults 0 0

to your /etc/fstab file for pts support.

rp-pppoe or ppp aparently relies on pts. Therefore, if your want to do:

# adsl-start

you need to have pts properly mounted first.

I also have the choppy mp3 problem, on a 2.4 GHz p4.

I noticed X going to 99% cpu when dragging windows around, might be because I'm using the nv driver (nvidia was unstable, lockup when logging out etc.)

edit: Nevermind, I think it's a problem with net-rhythmbox. xmms gives me some strange noise on some mp3s. I'm running zinf now, which doesn't jump audio or have flawed sound. Only problem I have with zinf is that I have to have two windows open if I want to see my playlist.

Not yet. Maybe by morning ;)

Edit: If you rename mm-sorces-2.5.68-r2.ebuild to mm-sources-2.5.68-r3.ebuild it works just dandy ;)
