feld: I don't play AA, but you might want to check your graphics settings/other sound settings. There should be no performance difference in 1.0.7 because it was mostly a bugfix release/new api stuff/better hw support for certain boards.

I found "modprobe -c" in this kernel return nothing

anyone got this error?

i had to change /etc/init.d/alsasound,"modprobe -c"->"cat /etc/modprobe.conf" to make alsa work again.

I need that network card driver too. Add it please. And I promise to try your intro sources.

I've tried to compile this kernel, but it gave a warning at the end about an undefined shrink_dcache_anon in reiser4.ko. After applying this patch from 2.6.10-rc3-mm1, it compiled fine.

I'm using it now, feels great, thanks for your work!

Alright, the next nitro will be out when another ck comes out, or when I get a sufficient amount of patches to add. All suggested patches WILL be attempted, and the reiser4 patch will be updated as well.

Hello

This nitro is running fine here with latest xorg-x11-6.8.1.901, nvidia, alsa with 5.1 surround, lirc, reiserfs4 and vesafb-tng. Just great

Thanks for your work Darckness

Greetings
Well the previous 2.6.10-rc3-Nitro2 works well but reiser4 seems badly broken under amd64 as is mentioned on the amd64 forum

as I got continual lockups under heavy testing.ReiserfS is fine. To test it. I installed a reiser4 Raid 0 root partition and run setiathome then did an emerge everyhthing from a Gnome Desktop with gkrellm running It locked up a lot and eventually wouldn't boot then a fsck.resier4 blew away half of the root directories. Howver the same process under resierFS Raid 0 is going well so it definitely seem Reiser4 isn't quite ready for 64bit . It was dammn fast though

Anyway I'll stop the current resierFS emerge-everyhthing and resume it with this new kernel I'll try it on a iMcc G5 next since i want to try gentoo on that.

I used the ntpl tuttorial to set it up with posix threads https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=189250&highlight=ntpl

Thanks for all the effort u put in

Cheers

It looks like I2C is broken. None of the i2c devices shows up ( it works fine with prvious nitros with same configiration). I don't know if it is the case with vanilla kernel since i am using reiser4 as root. Hence lm_sensors doesn't work.

was anyone able to get I2C working with this nitro?

Any chance on a broken-out?

eikketk: the only patch that I didn't apply was the win4lin+swsusp2 patch, and I don't count that since I never actually got it in fully. In the future when there are actually patches that are broken out, I will put them on the site.

the /proc sensors interface is deprecated so there is no way to get it back, you need new userland utilities.

i have a strange issue that has occured with 2.6.10 based on mm and its happening too with this kernel where my sound driver , via82xx , isnt detected by the alsasound script.... the patchset from http://kem.p.lodz.pl/~peter/cko/ works fine as did 2.6.9-nitro4. anyone else with the via82xx driver seeing this?

This one works perfectly here : amd64 and -march=amd64 as CFLAGS
