i don't think this is love-sources rated but..
when i try to mount any iso/cryptoloop device i get :
| Quote: | [12:16:53][~] -> mount -o something.iso /mnt/cdrom/ -v
mount: going to use the loop device /dev/loop0
ioctl: LOOP_SET_FD: Invalid argument
mount: failed setting up loop device
|
same results on 2.6.1-mm1.
i found a patch floating around on goggle's newsgroups but it was already in the kernel so i really don't know what to do.
peace |

Try removing /usr/local/portage/sys-kernel/love-sources/digest* and see if that helps.

It works fine for me. Is it maybe something to do with the nvidia drivers? Or are you using the riva framebuffer instead of vesa?

Sure, I'll write one and pass it on to steel300.
@fschneider: steel300 will be doing the next release AFAIK, he's been unable to get to his computer for the last few days so I was just filling in. I'll upload your patch somewhere and let him know about it.
@Seymour: many people have been getting these messages, but we haven't been able to work out why. I remember seeing a post in the forums that said you can get rid of the usb.agent error by emerging the latest version of hotplug. Other than that, I have no idea

Not sure what it is but the AMD 76x patch still hangs my machine on boot.
MSI KD7MAster dual MP's
Always stops at the 'Freeing Kernel Memory'
When removed everthing is cool

Trying to use bootsplash in silent mode and resolution 1280x1024x16 (video=mtrr,vesa:1280x1024 vga=0x31a) together with the vesafb results in a too small fb buffer:
| Code: |
Looking for splash picture.... silenjpeg size xxxxx bytes, does not fit into framebuffer.
|
(I don't have the right xxxx from the error message handy).
bootsplash shows the verbose mode image instead of the silent image (which is larger). This is with the default theme from the bootsplash-0.6-r3 package.
There is a an old fix for this problem in the forum but it seems this no longer applies because vesafb.c has changed much since the fix. |

Love-sources is just a kernel patch. You install it like any other kernel patch, the procedure of which is described for example in /usr/src/linux/README under "INSTALLING the kernel" as well as in the Kernel-HOWTO and other places on the web.
If you want to go the even easier way of portage, just download the provided ebuilds and emerge them, and you will have a brand new love source tree in your /usr/src. You go about it as with any other kernel, configure, compile, install, reboot, stand in awe.

Hmm, it's running fine here; could you try to compile it as module and load it later?

Question: Does anyone here use the Gnome resource graphs? I have mine in my toolbar, and since I switched from mm-sources to love, they are broken. I get CPU info and eth0 info, but no memory or swap space info. Anyone have this problem?
Edit:
It doesn't work with gkrellm for mem and swap either :-\.

 Damn! This kernel is giving me hard lock-ups! X just freezes and I can't do anything anymore. Maybe I should set up magic-sysrq or whatever it is called. Reverted to 2.6-1-love1. Let's see whether this one is stable. |

I installed this kernel, and although it does seem a little bit faster, this might as well be my interpretation. I don't see any major improvements over 2.6.0 but that'll be just me There's bound to be something better in this kernel isn't it?  (too bad I don't have those Lego - thingies )
A little question: framebuffer works fine for me, if I don't insert the cable on my tv-out. If I do, it scans my TV for available modes in stead of my CRT and I can't start it in 1280x1024. Any solutions to this known to any one (ie disabling the TV-out in CLI mode)

nope works here.
try to run gkrellm as root, if it works then there's some perm got screwed up in your /dev.

| So, now I used 2.6.1-love1 longer than love2 and no lock yet, so I skip love2. If love3 locks up, I'll go for bug hunting... |

Was it working before with a 2.6 kernel, or did you just update from 2.4? What version of util-linux are you running?
[edit]
Crap, I just loaded this up and all my loop stuff was broken too. Strace shows Illegal Seek. I guess, there is a problem with the loop code, at least for some configs (I compile mine right into the kernel along with cryptoloop and use cfq... anyone have it working? Maybe I should try backing out some of the broken-out patches...) No 261l2 for me  .

Did they merge in the latest alsa stuff to mainline or mm1? Or is this just not included?
Thanks,

Are you using pcmcia-cs-3.2.4? Try pcmcia-cs-3.2.5, which worked
for me for 2.6.0-test11 or so. |

You might be suffering from a similar problem than I had. linux-2.6.1-rc1-love2 was wrongly called linux-2.6.1-love2 (including the patch), to make it short:
- Remove Manifest
- Remove Digests
- Remove 2.6.1-love2.patch.bz2 form distfiles
[EDIT]On second thought it sounds like you might have forgotten to delete the manifest file[/EDIT]
Maybe that helps |
