Sigh, my notebook is in the shop now. So I'll test it when it gets back, sometime around christmas. Maybe. |

They are hoping to release 2.6.10 by Christmas, so hopefully I can have that out by the time you get your notebook back. I will, of course, keep the 2.6.9 series up-to-date with patches, but nothing new. I have a lot planned for 2.6.10, like checks for arch and the disabling of CK if you do not have AMD64 or x86, so that way, all archs can be supported. I am even trying to find enhancements for other archs that are like staircse, so then they can have speed improvements. Unless, Staircase is supported on other archs. I am under the impression that it doesn't. hmm. Well, I am basing my assumptions on the ck-sources ebuild that only has AMD64 and x86 listed.

| ck has said in his mailing list that there is nothing arch specific about his patchset. It should work on all arches. |

That's good news. That will make my job a little easier. I will add in the other archs to the allowed archs list in my ebuild then. Maybe I play things a little too causiosly, but better safe than sorry as I always say. The next release later today or early tomorrow will have that change. I hope the new swsup2 patches work. *crosses fingures*

I will look into adding this patch for 2.6.10. I found several drivers in a google search, so do you mean the pcmcia driver?
Version bump:
[UPDATE] 12/18
IMPORTANT: I changed the use flag from noreiser4 to reiser4, so if you want reiser4 support, you need to add it to the use list by doing something like: | Code: | | ~ # echo "sys-kernel/shadow-sources reiser4" >> /etc/portage/package.use |
I did this for sanity reasons in the ebuild so I could follow it a little better.
I added a lot of new patches for acrchs other than amd64 and x86.
I updated swsup2 to the newest beta because there were some issues with it and breaking certain things, well, at least in my testing. If anyone has problems with the new beta, let me know and I will revert back to the stable. I did notice some bugs fixed, but new ones might have popped up where I cannot test them. Enjoy.
Added an updated version of the patch to fix the compile error when swsup2 is used.
Updated to the newest -ac patch.
I moved all the patched that were not in base to extra, so now there are only 2 archives to DL. They are big, though.
As such, I changed how swsup2 and kexec are handled.
Lots of changes to the ebuild to handle all this.
[/UPDATE]
I did a lot of compiling of various versions, so I can say certain configurations work with all the use flags. I have a Pentium4 so I can only speak from that point of view though.

emerged shadow-sources with kexec and swsup2.
now i will test the compiling in my brand-new builded linux-system.
| Code: |

one file isn't there...
...my pc doesn't want swsup2.... 
there is no highmem support for amd64..?
i tryed a re-emerge without a old .config file but the same error
and a highmem.h from the i386 doesn't worked, too.
with the i386 highmem.h

In the file "kernel/power/suspend_builtin.c" try changing the line from "#include <asm/highmem.h>" to "#include <linux/highmem.h>". If that works, then I will make the change in the patches. This would be an issue with SwSup2 itself. I was going to create a patch that converts swsup2 to the latest stable, but that same line is in there, so it would fail just the same I am afraid.
EDIT: Yeah, there is a asm/highmem.h for i386 which is why it compiles for me. There is no asm/highmem.h for x86_64 (amd64). kexec is compatible with x86_64 and it changes from asm/highmem.h to linux/highmem.h.
Hope this helps.
@grenouille: You're welcome!

i will try swsusp2 now... without reiser4...
edit:
swsusp2 doesn't work with the linux/highmem.h
i searched and found that:
http://lists.berlios.de/pipermail/softwaresuspend-devel/2004-November/000891.html
edit2:
http://lists.berlios.de/pipermail/softwaresuspend-devel/2004-November/000871.html
edit3: the reiser4 compiled, only warnings...
for the 2.6.10...
i tested 2.6.10-rc3 with the ck-patches and the fbsplash.
ck-pachtes worked, and in fbsplash-patch i corrected one line.

Did the compile fail because of those warnings? If it succeeded, then you could try to use it. I'm using Reiser4 right now, and I now some warnings came up during compile. My root partition is Reiser4, even.
If changing that code works for swsup, then I will make a patch and fix up the extra archive. This is why swsup2 is controlled by a use flag.  They say it is going to be included in the kernel mainline sometime in the future to replace the existing suspend code.

Hey, no shadow-sources based on 2.6.10 yet?
Should I wait... or get some nitro?
Naaa... just kidding. I'll wait. |

hehe I second that
a few ideas:
bootsplash / gensplash patch (via use flag)
MPPE/MPPC patch (for connecting to microsoft PPTP VPN points)
If "USE=reiser4" then disable "use 4Kb for kernel stacks instead of 8Kb" automatically
also, fyi I can't get swsp2 (beta) to patch successfully on any 2.6.10 flavour kernel, yet
