The new love is ready. I don't know what else to say, except enjoy!

Just a quick note: Nick's VM swappiness is already included in -mm. That's why it's not in the changelog.

I fixed the ebuild. The new one is posted in the right places.

EDIT: Nevermind. Still working on it.
EDIT (Again): Now it works.

@steel300

Would it be possible to NOT include mm directly into the patchset. Usually in testing phase mm-patchset is dled seperately so this is just wastage. So could the ebuild be modified to first apply mm patch and the the love diff afterwards? Would be great.

Furthermore I will probably send you a udev patch for the frambuffer. I must check whether it is included. I asked Greg (udev mantainer) to send it to Andrew, but dunno how far it was. It was somehow forgotten on lkml...

OK, it is not included, yo I sent it to you.

Just to let you guys know, there is a new version of the acx100 drivers out. See acx100.sf.net

These guys are working on Active Memory Defragmentation for kernel 2.6.0. It might be worth dropping them a mail to hear when they plan to have a kernel patch rather than a module as this feature has the potential to be extremely cool.

alsa 1.0.2 sucks on i8x0. The 1.0.2c version is much better.

@steel300

I guess I am not the only one who sometimes tries the plain mm-kernel to debug, if love doesn't run. So if you emerge mm-sources and love sources, you download two patches each of about 3-4MB size. BUT as mm-sources patch is inside love sources one, we could reduce love sources patch to a few kb, if you base your patch on mm-sources than on vanilla kernel. SO instead of dling two times 3-4MB, for having mm-kernel and love-kernel, you just need to dl 3-4Mb+ xkb for love patches. Of course the ebuild needs to be changed, but that should be a minor issue. And things could be easier if love revisions would be fixed to mm revisions, but that is not needed, but then the mm kernel version must be hardcoded every time in the ebuild.

I hope now you understood what I tried to tell you.

I sent you the framebuffer patch, so no need to search, but of course your freedom to do so.

BTW, I am back to love sources and APIC (CPU DIsconnect off). Seems to be good, so far. PIC and CPU-Disc. lockes up on me on newer sources...
