Centrino wireless driver could get updated to 0.40-pre2 (around for a while, see ipw2100.sf.net)
Another thing - I'm not quite sure whether it's in your patch or even vanilla kernel, but turning CONFIG_X86_SPEEDSTEP_CENTRINO_ACPI on crashes the kernel on startup (at least on my lappy) - this is true since the first release having this option.
Also, I've had performance issue with Nick's scheduler && Preempt - kernel without Nick's scheduler runs fine with and without preempt, kernel with Nick's patch only runs fine when preempt is off... (for example compiling kernel on background with web surfing/mp3 takes twice the time to complete, heavy disk load gets the machine to its knees...)
anyway, great work :) I haven't used a vanilla kernel for a loong loooooong time... :) |

Just snaged and compiled the latest love 4. Works great ! Just have 2 questions
1.)cflags-selection.patch. Is anyone using it ? And if so, which flags are you using.
2)Do i need to do anything special to use nicks scheduler, or is it automatic.
And one again great work steel ! |

I haven't upgraded since around 2.6.3-love6 (for shame  ), and I noticed that the orinocco drivers aren't in this one. Are they default or something? |

The orinoco drivers are in there. Check the notes again.

I don't use custom cflags, but I would like to know who uses what.
Nick's scheduler is "on" by default. There's no way to turn it off.

Working great here! For a while I used some pretty aggressive cflags on the kernel, but since I never noticed any speed gains, I figured that there was more risk than benefit and stopped. I'm considering trying a new set soon though.

When I patch, I get Hunk failures on a dry run. Are we supposed to just patch the previous love-sources? Its going against a vanilla kernel tree.

I'm getting things like that when compiling modules for this kernel (no problems for love3):
make: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.5-love4'

The latest says that the modules(fglrx.mod) doesn't exist. It happens with another different module but hasn't happened to me never before this.
Any tip? |

I am unable to compile *any* out of tree drivers... It worked with -love3 but it does not even when I revert from love4.
VMWare fails with:
CC [M] /tmp/vmware-config2/vmmon-only/common/task.o
LD [M] /tmp/vmware-config2/vmmon-only/vmmon.o
/bin/sh: line 1: /tmp/vmware-config2/vmmon-only/.tmp_versions/vmmon.mod: No such file or directory

cp -f vmmon.ko ./../vmmon.o
cp: cannot stat `vmmon.ko': No such file or directory
make: *** [auto-build] Error 1
make: Leaving directory `/tmp/vmware-config2/vmmon-only'
Unable to build the vmmon module.
and ndiswrapper fails with:
CC [M] /var/tmp/portage/ndiswrapper-0.6-r1/work/ndiswrapper-0.6/driver/divdi3 .o
LD [M] /var/tmp/portage/ndiswrapper-0.6-r1/work/ndiswrapper-0.6/driver/ndiswr apper.o
/bin/sh: line 1: /var/tmp/portage/ndiswrapper-0.6-r1/work/ndiswrapper-0.6/driver /.tmp_versions/ndiswrapper.mod: No such file or directory
It is possible that the error is not in love-sources... but I haven't emerged anything significant (just afterstep, efax-gtk...) |

I have not emerged nothing really important into my system.
So the problem is mm4 or love4 
I've been looking into lkml for problems like this but nobody seems to have it. I'll have a look tomorrow.

I'm not sure why, but this kernel feels smoother than the last one. I might be imagining things though. Only things I changed was disabling preempt and actually enabling 4k-stack-whatever since I don't use nvidia-drivers anyway.
As for cflags-hacking, I usually change -O2 to -O3 and add -ffast-math. |

I've seen this error before. I have no idea what causes though. There's a bug on it at bugs.gentoo.org, can't remember the bug number though. Can you patch it by hand?

I'm still trying to track this one down. It's really crazy. Could you try emerging mm-sources and then unmerging them to see if it can patch them?
