I don't know if this has anything to do with the patchset, but I sure know that this never happened before:

Now I found a reason why I had the compile errors. There is a problem with nfs as a module and xfs, so I had to compile nfs into the kernel.

Could somebody point me to the only reiser4 patch from the latest love sources? Is that possible to get it separately? The one from love sources seems to be only the one which could be compiled _cleanly_ with vanilla 2.6.11. Thanx

bk-usb supposed to fix any usb problems? perhaps it will make my usbmouse able to have its polling changed again like it could in 2.6.10?

nicksched is a CPU scheduler. it is genetic enabled if wanted in this kernel.

deadline, as / genetic as, and cfq are the i/o schedulers.

Well, I'm a convert. Love sources run every bit as fast as Nitro sources, possibly a bit more stable, and my ATI drivers compile on them without modification. I'm hooked. Great release!

Very nice! love-kernel rocks!
I found that it's faster than gentoo-dev and more stable than nitro

Congratulations!
Reiser4 works fine only with deadline. I didn't tried CFQ, but with genetic as I have lockups.

Nice work!

Love Rocks!!! Finally real speed improvements... I can finally run all my server apps(apache etc) while playing demanding games, listening to music, and watching a movie... YES ^_^
But somthing is bothering me. While everything seems to work fine, my dmesg shows a bunch of:

Just installed Love as part of my re-install, so far so good. Booted up successfully with all the Genetic stuff enabled and on RR4, I'm very pleased so far. Nvidia seems to be working fine as well, at least as far as startx goes with the nvidia driver.

I have a question about AGPGART. I used to have NvAGP set to 1 and when I did cat /proc/driver/nvidia/agp/status, it would say that it was enabled and using NVIDIA driver. Now, I notice that in recent kernels, there's an NVidia option under AGPGART, which I enabled. Is that the same thing as using the NVIDIA driver? Because now, proc returns AGPGART as the driver, and if I try to use NvAGP 1, it returns disabled, saying that another instance of AGP is running or whatever. Is compiling it into the kernel as part of AGPGART the same thing as what I used to do? I didn't have AGPGART compiled into the kernel at all on 2.6.8 I believe, just used NvAGP 1.

Oh yeah, the Nvidia drivers is also what pushed me from Nitro to Love - the last version of Nitro is REAAAAL iffy with Nvidia, even though they compiled it into the kernel. Module refuses to start/work all together.

Nice release fallow - running sweetly here.
It's good to see love-sources are still about, I have a sneaking suspicion that they've been a tad slicker for me than others I've tried.

Going to drop it onto my laptop now to play with some of the other toys in there (swsusp2 + orinoco). Should be good :-D

Oooeerrr... It's refusing to compile with swsusp2 enabled;
