I try to patch this love with software-suspend-2.0.0.105-for-2.6.9-rc1 without luck...
A lot of rejected hunks... and a bzImage compile error

One of one: that's not a bug, it's a feature

Something like "extra verbose debug messages" in the USB section

Well,
Let's begin with bad news:
even if I don't use softraid or AFS, I am unable to boot from initrd with CacheFS enabled
Then the ivman eject problem is still here...
And if I unplug/plug my usb mouse I got this

Hi OneOfOne,
I have a request: Please include the ALPS Glidepoint patch from the Synaptics package. It applies cleanly to all kernels I have tried but it is frustrating to have to apply it manually each time I try a new kernel.

This patch is required to get the ALPS touchpad on several laptops going.

You can get the Synaptics package here - the patch is included in the archive.

Hi!

OneOfOne applied the configurable-hid-mouse-polling-patch for 2.6.8, instead of the 2.6.9 one, so apply this patch if you want it to actually work:

Wunderbar! (passes the ET test here)

On the usb front, my mouse works, but my flash drive doesn't ("mount: I could not determine the filesystem type, and none was specified") and neither does my external (usb) hard drive ("mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda1, or too many mounted filesystems")

They both work with 2.6.7-rc1-love1, but not 2.6.7-rc1-love[1|2] (and with windows

)

grepping for fat and usb in in the diff of the 2.6.7 and 2.6.9 configs doesn't show anything that I think could cause this

What love should I try so that I can use these drives and resier4?

This is interesting, cfdisk /dev/sda gives:

FATAL ERROR: Bad primary partition 0: Partition begins after end-of-disk
Press any key to exit cfdisk

For both of them

But, fdisk -l correctly reports their size (120GB and 256MB), but then lists partitions (/dev/sda1p1 /dev/sda1p2 etc), that all look roughtly like this:

Ok, rocks nicely, also I don't understand, what this CacheFS exactly does, but it kills reiser4 (kernel panic), so better to let it disabled.

BTW No idea, what this nforce2-*.diff was all about. I have a nforce2 mobo here, but everthing seems to be working normally. If if was indeed something performance enhancing, why not leave it in the love patch-set? (lots's of people have nforce2 motherboards)

I also have an nforce2 mobo, and almost everything is working fine. The ati-drivers ebuild doesnt' seem to play nicely. The build comepletes, but with a nice string of errors and the module fails to load. When I get back later toight I'll do the proocess again and post some text. Also, the radeon drm in-kernel module is broken too it seems. When the fglrx module wouldn't work I tried the inkernel one, and the comp wouldn't boot into entrance. I had to change my /usr/src/linux symlink and rebuild the fglrx module with gentoo-dev-sources and laod it to get back into my gui. Did I miss something in the release notes that says this stuff shouldn't work?
