 Posted: Thu Feb 16, 2006 8:28 pm Post subject: Xen sources patches. |
 |
|
Hi Tigr,
do you think it would be possible to included the Xen (virtualization ) patches in the next release.
more info here :http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Xen_and_Gentoo
Xen now works and stable with x86 and amd64, and I would love to see it included in nitro.
Kind regards
Joel W (AEnertia)

With this release i tried the anticipatory scheduler, and i have to admit in cases where heavy io happens, i have the feeling it is kinda snappier.

IMO, this is correct, especially with reiser4..

Although I don't really need them, what did the trick? Or is it too hackish? Or are these just svn ebuils?
/edit: Ok I saw it these are svn ebuilds  Very nice btw.
But hey they give an error here:
| Code: |

Ok as requested again by a user, here is also my grub conf. There are probably some mistakes in it, if yes tell me. But it works and that's what counts

Hey, thanks for the ebuilds, always handy svns build for madwifi!
Looks like this is not nitro related, more rc3 related, so, alas same error as before for me;

| Just a quick warning for anyone relying on the official ati drivers (fglrx), so far they dont seem to work with 2.6.16 kernels, but it is a known issue 122335. Hopefully it can be fixed or were stuck waiting for ati to release (another) updated driver |

Strange enough, i emerged them successfully and modprobing all of these modules was flawless, btw, i hope you didn't emerge with --nodeps? because otherwise madwifi-tools from same pull don't get installed

Yes very strange! No I first emerged the tools, and then the driver... It still is working with the one I checked out myself... So at least I have the drivers

Hmm could anyone modprobe the fglrx driver?
| Code: |
insmod /lib/modules/2.6.16-rc3-nitro1-IBM-T43/video/fglrx.ko
FATAL: Error inserting fglrx (/lib/modules/2.6.16-rc3-nitro1-IBM-T43/video/fglrx.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)

fglrx: module license 'Proprietary. (C) 2002 - ATI Technologies, Starnberg, GERMANY' taints kernel.
fglrx: Unknown symbol inter_module_unregister

Any hints for this?

Hey guys, nice work here! Just got a new laptop, Acer TM 8204WLMi. 2gig duo core..... im not sure how long it s going to take for the multi-core scheduler in -mm to get included in the vanilla sources so could you include that patch in your following releases unitll it gets into the vanilla sources?
