It's not exactly a patch per se, but I'll make one out of it if you would put it in.
It's at acx100.sourceforge.net. |
I would love that as well =)
Does someone have an ebuild with those patches in for gcc 3.4? |

I'll check the sourceofrge site to see what's going on. If it follows kernel standards, I see no problem with putting it in in the next release.

Made the mistake of upgrading to module-init-tools-3.0presomething and it broke modprobe so I backed that down. Other than that, nice solid release steel300!

Hmm, i'm getting this with the latest release:
| Code: |
CC [M] drivers/scsi/sr.o
drivers/scsi/sr.c: In function `get_capabilities':
drivers/scsi/sr.c:889: parse error at end of input
drivers/scsi/sr.c:74: warning: `sr_remove' used but never defined
drivers/scsi/sr.c:97: warning: `sr_packet' used but never defined
make[2]: *** [drivers/scsi/sr.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** [drivers/scsi] Error 2
make: *** [drivers] Error 2
|
I'm using gcc version 3.2.3 20030422, maybe thats the problem?
Thanks for all the great builds so far!

If the patch won't apply, just do it by hand - you only need to add the "}" in the middle.

I was getting that SCSI error as well. Went back and looked at the sr.c code from previous 2.6.1_r2-love1 and it showed
on line 801.
Manually added the above and got a clean complie. Haven't tested the functionality as of yet, but the kernel boots fine and loads the sr module without error...

Actually, the ACX100 drivers do have a big down-side: They are not SMP proof 100% yet.
Apparently they run and everything, but there are many possible (and unlikely, but still possible) race conditions.
I think letting go of hyper-threading for a while is better than not having Internet access for a while...
EDIT: Written a informative post in the appropriate section at the love-sources forum. Go and see. |

So, I gave love5 a try, and I don't know why. No lock-ups yet.  Not that I want to complain...  Whatever steel300 did with mm4, he did it well! Nice.  |

Keep up the good work!

after compiling I get this one:
if [ -r System.map ]; then /sbin/depmod -ae -F System.map 2.6.1-love5; fi
WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.1-love5/kernel/fs/nfsd/nfsd.ko needs unknown symbol dnotify_parent
From my .config:
#
# Network File Systems
#
CONFIG_NFS_FS=m
CONFIG_NFS_V3=y
CONFIG_NFS_V4=y
# CONFIG_NFS_DIRECTIO is not set
CONFIG_NFSD=m

# CONFIG_NFSD_TCP is not set
CONFIG_LOCKD=m
CONFIG_LOCKD_V4=y
CONFIG_EXPORTFS=m
CONFIG_SUNRPC=m
# CONFIG_SUNRPC_GSS is not set
I don't know why it breaks now, while it worked with love2, but I didn't investigate. I'll take a look at it tomorrow, since it is 2 am. |

| Posted: Sun Jan 18, 2004 2:29 am Post subject: audio cdrom question... |
|
|
Okay everything works, except, CD audio.
I can verify xmms, kscd can read/play the CD, but I get no audio.
I have both digital and analog outputs running from my cdrom to my SB card. I have verified the sound works both through alsa (aplay in X and at console), and that arts sound works (through the KDE configure panel).
The only error I'm seeing in /var/log/messages is this:
| Code: |
request_module: failed /sbin/modprobe -- sound-slot-1. error = 256
|
But I don't know if that even has anything to do with it.
I have tried
amixer set Master 100 unmute
amixer set PCM 100 unmute
amixer set CD 100 unmute
Heck I even fired up alsamixer itself and pushed everything to 100 that I could.
Any suggestions?

| I would like to use the love-sources because I have a laptop that could benefit from the igp and powernow patches. It is a compaq 2195us notebook and is very picky in linux. This could be just the kernel I need to get it to work properly. I dont see the love-sources in the portage tree. How do i install this thing? |

What impact if any would it make to the rest of my system i.e. should I emerge -U system/world after upgrading gcc? What's the benefit e.g. a faster kernel?
The other thing is that I've just emerge sync'ed and can't see gcc3.4 anyway (not it /usr/portage/sys-devel/gcc that is)  |
First of all, it's not in portage yet. I hacked together an ebuild (based on the gcc 3.3 ebuild) and use that.
Second: it is a major upgrade. You wouldn't unmerge gcc 3.2, but there is a C++ binary incompatibility, and many programs which compile with gcc 3.2 / 3.3 do not compile with gcc 3.4 (yet).
Short advice: If you don't like testing out pre-beta versions of a compiler, working around compiler/program bugs, then don't use it. On the other hand, if you want super performance (10% better or so on average AFAICT) then by all means, try it out, see this thread |

Actually, I've been using this one for quite a while, then I started getting kernel panics related to it in my new install.
So I got a newer version, and it worked. |

The acx100 patches will go in the next release. However, there will be a huge disclaimer regarding there use. The code is incomplete, but that's the spirit of love-sources. Experimental ideas thrive here, so in it goes.

Using it as a temp directory now. |

Seems like!!
Of course I did a full backup in advance so I can go back anytime I want to. And it's a fact that I have no single important files on my Linux partitions, so when everything would get lost it won't really matter.
I'm lovin the risk... |
