Yes,
for example if I use git radeonhd drivers it works ok, can do anything like git checkout, pull etc, w/o downloading all the sources.
But zen-sources never. I just pulled only few times but it is anoying, (for me and for your server).. So I will try to clean it once more an git clone...
EDIT: it looks like this:
| Code: |
[root@robert-server zen-sources]# git checkout

hi,
i am using "zen-sources-2.6.24_rc6-r0" on my ibm-x31 notebook. Works pretty good, except i got an error with the cpu-governors, no matter which one i try, it always falls back to performance-governor because of
[code]{ondemand,conservative} governor failed, too long transition latency of HW, fallback to performance governor[/code]
It worked before, with the kamikaze- or gentoo-sources, any ideas what might be the problem? I can provide dmesg and kernel-config if needed...

I have
HP dv5000 dual core T2500 1GB RAM 5400RPM SATA
enabled
CONFIG_ZEN_LL_DESKTOP=y
CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED=y
CONFIG_FAIR_USER_SCHED=y
CONFIG_HZ_864=y
CONFIG_DEFAULT_AS=y
however, with cfs if I am trying to play CD in AmaroK my touchpad is not usable (super slow). Fix?
turning on permanently
IO_support = 3 (32-bit w/sync)
unmaskirq = 1 (on)
for cd/dvd recorder and now playing CD in AmaroK does not affect touchpad.
this simply points out to the fact that though CFS may not be at fault it may expose some issues with system configuration that did not affect you before.
Of course CFS is still buggy (and in fact it is), but the resolution related to your problem may not be in cfs. |

isn't irqbalance useful not until you have more than 2 cores (>=4 / >= 3 cores) ?
update:
| Quote: | | IRQ load balancing isn't worthwhile until you have more than one socket, or more than two CPU cores. |
ah, ok, so it might be useful, I'll give it a try
update2:
I see it's obligatory for good interactivity 
| Quote: | | If you are running a dual-core system (SMP), you *need* to install sys-apps/irqbalance, and set it to run on startup via its initscript - it makes a world of difference in system responsiveness. |
see
*raises hand* just having started using it, I'm curious how responsibility will change

That's normal. This changed in .24 kernels. |

Hello!
Confirmation - I have the same problem as kernelOfTruth with CFS.
I could not load my kde on Core2Duo laptop untill setting CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED=n.
Also I have following in dmesg, however wifi works fine for me:

Maybe I have found the bug:
I was using /usr/src as experimental ext4dev partition with mballoc and delalloc
After cleand git-clone every think works ok, but after remount apeard the problem with unpacking (every time). So I have disabled delalloc and mballoc, git-clone, try, remount, etc and now it works ok also after remount or reboot..

well on lklm was a discussion about NO_HZ breaking a lot of things. Not to mention that savings on battery aren't big. Devs seemed to be cautious about current NO_HZ.
Turn NO_HZ off try cfs again, hopefully this will help |

Was about to mention that yesterday. Just copy that file svnversion.h from an older snapshot or madwifi's subversion repo to /usr/src/zen-sources/drivers/net/wireless/madwifi/svnversion.h .

Hmm. It anyway just contains one line  . So create the file /usr/src/zen-sources/drivers/net/wireless/madwifi/svnversion.h manually using your favorite editor with the content
| Quote: | | #define SVNVERSION "svn r3073" |
(may replace it with current number, but doesn't matter, just a version).
