2.6.9-flapjack

[DarwinianCoeus]

I got sick of waiting for mm1 to try out 2.6.9, but im reiser4ing it too, so here's something for everyone else in my place.

http://clarkson.edu/~kraetzja/flapjack-2.6.9.patch.bz2

2.6.9
+genpatches(2.6.9-gentoo-r1)
+reiser4
+software suspend 2

IMHO, this is the nicest 2.6 kernel I've had yet. Minor annoyance from ndiswrapper, but everything else, including gensplash, is working nice.

HOWTO:
reiser4: make sure 4k stacks are off
suspend: turn on suspend2 and most of it's options, turn off suspend. add "resume2=swap:/dev/yourswap" to your kernel append (grub/lilo)

is this patch against gentoo-dev-sources? it does not patch against 2.6.9 vanilla (2 or 3 patches seem to be reversed or something)

will try patching against gentoo-dev-sources later

patches fine for me

md5?

patches fine here. are you using development-sources? they have the compile-fix patch applied.

blue.sca: yep, I was. I just had a look at the ebuild and found out about that patch.
unpacking linux-2.6.9.tar.bz2 and patching indeed works fine =)

I think development-sources should not have the following description:
"Full sources for the vanilla 2.6 kernel tree" when the sources ARENT vanilla... =/

edit: still does not work =(

make mrproper gives:

it sounds a little more local to speakup, perchance
