I'm still getting problems mounting the drive  The patch hasn't changed, it's still the most recent one available.

It sure is the latest, as of 2004-01-10 07:22, but nobody can tell you if it's the greatest, any of the patches included in love have any chance of breaking  |

Oh well, I'll not bother then, not until the patch gets updated anyway ..

| This looks interesting...can someone pop me a link to the correct thread that would tell me how to emerge this thing? I popped this thing into a sys-kernel/love-sources directory but it didn't like it much. I've been following these love sources for a while waiting for a chance to use them and now what I thought was right wasn't. I've been using mm-sources until now. |

First you do:
ebuild <*.ebuild> digest
And then:
emerge love-sources |

First, edit your /etc/make.conf and uncomment the "PORTDIR_OVERLAY" setting. Then do | Code: | | mkdir -p /usr/local/portage/sys-kernel/love-sources/files |
This creates a place to store the ebuild, where it won't be deleted every time you emerge sync. Next, download the ebuild from the URL I posted, and place it into /usr/local/portage/sys-kernel/love-sources. Then do | Code: | | ebuild /usr/local/portage/sys-kernel/love-sources-2.6.1-r2.ebuild digest |
After that, just do "emerge love-sources".

Ya know, that looks familiar. Maybe I misread the error message. Thanks for the help!
Edit: I get this error:
| Code: | ebuild /usr/local/portage/sys-kernel/love-sources-2.6.1-r2.ebuild digest
!!! aux_get(): ebuild for 'portage/love-sources-2.6.1-r2' does not exist at:
!!! /usr/portage/portage/love-sources/love-sources-2.6.1-r2.ebuild
doebuild(): aux_get() error; aborting.
|
Why in the world would it look for it in portage/portage...
Edit #2:
Nevermind, I changed your command to
| Code: | | ebuild /usr/local/portage/sys-kernel/love-sources/love-sources-2.6.1-r2.ebuild digest |
Edit #3:
Emerged perfectly. I Wasn't expecting so much help! Thanks!

Actually it isn't really; it has been in a few times back in the days of Lovechild.
The patch itself has been around for a while; there is even a 2.4 version of it. It used to cause some issues with timing (my PC was almost unusable), however those seem to have gone away somewhere around -test10. Read more about here: http://www.muru.com/linux/amd-smp-idle/
Wedge, thanks very much for adding it

| If I remember, correctly, there was the AMD 760 for pc's and AMD 762 (or something) for SMP boards. I have an AMD 760 chipset (with the VIA 686B south bridge) so would the power management still work? Or is it tailored for the dualy boards? |

I had problems with the AMD 76x in earlier test kernels, on my dual board.
I meant it was new for recent love kernels by steel and wedge_
But whatever, I'll give it a try, see if the earlier problems are fixed ...

It apparently only works for SMP systems, see the muru.com page on why.
FWIW I think the chipsets are called 760 for UP as opposed to 760MP/MPX for MP.

Hi wedge,
can you please include the current alsa bt87x driver (for the
audio part of several tv input cards like the hauppauge wintv
series) into the next love source?
I have made a patch and will pm it to you (since I don't have any web space and don't know where to upload).
The driver ist just copied from the alsa-driver package and the
Makefile and Kconfig have been patched accordingly. |

Ever since love-sources 2.6.1-love1, I've been getting odd error messages on boot, even though the system seems to be working fine.
| Code: | /etc/hotplug/usb.agent: line 216: 09: value too great for base (error token is "09")
and
cat:/sys//devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:09.0/ide0/0.1/host0/0:0:0:0/type: No such file or directory |
and some messages about unknown dependencies for /etc/init.d/net.eth0. Running /sbin/depscan.sh as it tells me doesn't seem to help it any.
Nothing has changed in my .config since 2.6.1-rc1-love1 which still works fine. Dmesg doesn't show anything unusual.
These messages all appear while the modules from /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6 are being loaded, they are as follows.
| Code: | e100
ohci-hcd
ehci-hcd
hid
ide-scsi
joydev
i2c-nforce2 |
I have an epox 8rda3i mb with and athlon xp 2600.
Is anyone else getting these messages and/or know how to get rid of them? |

Try downloading the patch manually and placing it in /usr/portage/distfiles. Then running emerge again to see if will find it correctly.
Got a question on the bootsplash. I got the background to come up correctly and framebuffer works, and I can start X (using nvidia drivers), but if I try to ctrl+alt+f2 (or any other terminal) it comes up with strange colors. Anyone run into this before? |
