Website (and git) still down for me too.In the mean time, does anybody have a broken out reiser4 patch from zen-sources? I want to use 2.6.28-rc9 vanilla but I can't because the mm reiser4 patch (and the 2.6.27 patch) doesn't work with 2.6.28.

Installing the latest version from the overlay does definitely not work.

*** Unable to determine the target kernel version. ***

error with nvidia-drivers.

EDIT: it's an error with the nvidia-drivers-173.14.12-r2 ebuild from the zen-overlay.
so it's nvidia ebuild related.

hi,

just noticed tp_smapi has been removed in git, does anyone know why?
Also i noticed: ide_piix does not work anymore on thinkpad x31, instead ata_piix should be used. If anyone wonders why new kernel is not bootable.

Well... putting zen website with higher priority than the zen sources itself does not make any sense to me. The most important thing to me as a zen-sources user is the git repository and the zen-sources itself and not the website! We need a good quality up do date sources and not a fancy website (refer to kernel.org for example). Please resolve the internal team issues people (I presume you are experienced such).

2.6.28-rc9-zen1 works very well.

I don't understand it either. Updating the website to a minimum takes no time... Furthermore they changed things that much last two months, its just annoying.

Anyone else getting "fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly" when cloning zen-sources as outlined on the first page of this thread?
Solution: change repository location to git://repo.or.cz/linux-2.6/zen-sources.git

In order to give the zen-guys enough time to discuss their website issue:

I've raised kamikaze-sources-2.6.28_rc9-r1.ebuild from death.

disclaimer: it's just the work of the zen-guys plus some organization. I take no credits as all parts are shameless stolen...

special note: unfortunately the kernel-2.eclass does not support lzma so far and I have to use bz2. will send a patched kernel-2.eclass to the developpers soon.
