compiling right now. btw I have record load on -nitro1 without system stutter :
02:17:16 up 29 min, 4 users, load average: 5.58, 3.74, 1.99
This is a PIII 800Mhz mind you 
Tiger thanks for your efforts.
Here's an LKML thread worth watching, some performance enhancing patches might come out of it :
http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/1/10/433
UPDATE == up and running , very solid , very performant.

| Hey dude, wanted to thank you. VMWare compiles fine(tho when I _first_ ran it I had a panic...), ATI drivers work perfect, no more lockups with k3b when searching for devices... fun stuff. Love the nitro kernel, thanks for keeping it updated!! BTW, good luck this semester |

Up and running here. Will stress the hell outa this new kernel to see if it locks Good work, Tiger!
[EDIT] It kinda feels snappy...interesting...
[EDIT2] Devices and folders show up correctly in the "media:/" kio_slave. Mounting works correctly. I'm running HAL-0.5.5.1-r3 (not CVS). |

With this kernel I am getting these log entries every 2 Seconds:
| Code: |
Jan 14 02:05:55 boogie ata2: command error, drv_stat 0x51 host_stat 0x0
Jan 14 02:05:55 boogie ata2: command error, drv_stat 0x51 host_stat 0x25

Jan 14 02:05:55 boogie ata2: command error, drv_stat 0x51 host_stat 0x0
|
Is this something to worry and how can I disable these logging?

Looks like this holds in your case:
| Code: |
case HSM_ST_FIRST:
/* Some pre-ATAPI-4 devices assert INTRQ
* at this state when ready to receive CDB.
*/
/* check device status */
if (unlikely((status & (ATA_BUSY | ATA_DRQ)) != ATA_DRQ)) {
/* Wrong status. Let EH handle this */
ap->hsm_task_state = HSM_ST_ERR;
goto fsm_start;
|
which then gets caught by this block in the state machine:
| Code: |
case HSM_ST_ERR:
printk(KERN_ERR "ata%u: command error, drv_stat 0x%x host_stat 0x%x\n",
ap->id, status, host_stat);
ap->hsm_task_state = HSM_ST_IDLE;
qc->err_mask |= __ac_err_mask(status);
ata_qc_complete(qc);
break;
|
Looks like the error is on your device's side and it was always there, only earlier
libata didn't handle it properly (read: didn't recognize the error)
to get rid of the printk open the file /usr/src/linux/drivers/scsi/libata-core.c
and comment this out:
| Code: |
printk(KERN_ERR "ata%u: command error, drv_stat 0x%x host_stat 0x%x\n",
ap->id, status, host_stat);

Hello, tried this on my notebook can't start kdm or X, seems that the touchpad is broken:

(++) from command line, (!!) notice, (II) informational,
(WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown.
(==) Log file: "/var/log/Xorg.0.log", Time: Sat Jan 14 12:38:37 2006
(==) Using config file: "/etc/X11/xorg.conf"

carpman: if it works in vanilla, open /usr/src/linux/drivers/input/mouse/synaptics.c
and comment this out:
| Code: |
/* Synaptics can usually stay in sync without extra help */
psmouse->resync_time = 0;
|
Tell me if it then works, as it could make a potential candidate for a nitro3 patch.

Weird, it works fine with me...
Looks like /dev/input/event2 doesn't exist anymore. Try changing | Code: | | Option "Device" "/dev/input/event2" |
to | Code: | | Option "Device" "/dev/psaux" |
or similar. |
