The "No reiser4" makes me not wanna jump to this one :(
Thnx for 2.6.6-love4 I completely turned my system to reiser4 (except the / ofcourse :)) so this one is of no use...

Can it be possible btw for Swsusp2 to be included in the loves??? Tha would be groovin' :p
I myself cant seem to be able to patch the love-sources with the swsusp patch, or patch a swsusp-kernel with love-patches :(

i hear you :-/
i'm on reiser4 myself.
About swsup i tried before and unless they release a new patch there's no chance.

@everyone else, does it lag the sound in ut2k4? and does it take forever during init?

note about this release:

if you're an UT2004 player - please report back with any problems
with sound and this love-sources release.

my own findings are that UT2004 has terrible sound with this release;
music stops, stutters, crackles and pops... as do all the sounds in-
game.

That's not needed anymore. It's done automatically. Any problems you're having aren't related to config_hz.

I played with it for a little bit, but couldn't find anything. Perhaps I'm just too tired and missed it.

Ah man, this kernel was sounding perfect... too good to be true. Unfortunately I run a root and home reiser4 system =(. 2.6.6-love4 has an awful memory leak in it or something because I can't keep my system running smoothly for long on it. I'd be tempted to go back to 2.6.4-ck2 except the reiser4 patch is old and does not seem to load on my system... Dark days in the kernel world... nvidia driver problems... reiser4 problems.... Every day I wait for my good ol reiser4 support. Glad to hear bootsplash is stable in this release.

I have the exact same problem here playing music with XMMS. I use the XMMS crossfading plugin which has always worked flawlessly. In this kernel, switching songs stops the music for about a quarter of a second, enough to be a huge annoyance. Audio everywhere else occasionally pops and crackles as well. This kernel is the only variable that has changed on my system.

What? What do you mean done automatically? All I know is, that when I have that patch applied and I change the hz to 100 I don't have my problem.

@hjlane3

The hissing sound you are experiencing is a hardware problem: Search at lkml... Some capacitors or a like are making that sound. Another guy therfore changed his Hz to something like 10000 or alike so that hiss frequency goes beyond his hearing.

It's not config_hz related. It changed the values between 1000, 512, and 100 automatically now. The noises you're hearing aren't timer related.

this love-sources release managed to slow down my worklaptop to a crawl, simple things like "Setting up lo" took about 3 minutes to complete.

I'll experiment a bit with my kernel configs to see what the cause was.

I blame staircase i guess.
i'm sorry about that guys, i emailed nick to send us a new scheduler, if he doesn't do it by tomorrow i'll make a new release based on v30f or something.
