Re: 2.6.18-emission1: Pathological Euphoria

Try using kernel26emission-fallback.img.

And maybe "depmod -A" could help with the other thing - if you're able to boot into your system whatsoever.

Nope, the fallback image doesn't help.

Re: 2.6.18-emission1: Pathological Euphoria

E-Mission Sources is based on the Lockless Pagecache by Nick Piggin, GenPatches, and CK.

The main goal of this patchset is to stay updated with genpatches releases,
offer latest features, decrease latencies, decrease overhead, and improve interactivity.  Another
goal of E-Mission Sources is stability.  We boot test each release and run for an extended amount of time.

/* Notes */
New versions of everything!  I decided to go ahead and release -emission1 with execshield for this release.  GrSecurity is taking their time in releasing a new version.

Features:
RCU-Preempt: Lower Latencies http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/8/28/179
USB Mouse Polling Revised:  Predatorfreak changed the patch up slightly to allow you to change your polling interval in sysctl, at '/proc/sys/kernel/hid_mousepoll_interval'.  You now have the option of enabling or disabling polling in favor of the event based system, which is the kernel default.
Adaptive Readahead: New readahead logic, improved speed: http://kerneltrap.org/node/6642
Genetic Anticipatory:  Alot of work has been done, and bugs have been fixed.  Good for File Servers/Databases. http://kernel.jakem.net/
Thinkpad patches: http://vipernicus.evolution-mission.org … s/thinkpad
BadRAM: Work around bad spots in RAM http://rick.vanrein.org/linux/badram/
Libata-git: Latest for SATA and PATA

Attention:
If anyone would like to make requests for new features/drivers, either post here, or join us in #emission-sources on Freenode.

Example of new E-Mission Tunables (All but Custom are preconfigured options):

E-Mission Tunables  ---> 
( ) Server
( ) File Server
( ) Compute Server
( ) Gaming
( ) Desktop
( ) Low Latency Desktop
( ) Custom 

Custom Menu:

E-Mission Kernel Tunables (Custom)  --->
(6) Minimum Round Robin Timeslice (in milliseconds) (NEW)
(19) Factor For Default Value (NEW)
(1) Interactive CPU Scheduling (NEW)
(0) Compute CPU Scheduling (NEW)
(80) Percentage CPU For SCHED_ISO Tasks (NEW)
(66) Percentage RAM Filled With Mapped Pages (NEW)
(1) Hard Mapped Limit (NEW)
(1) Tail Large Files (NEW)
(0) Dirty Ratio (NEW)

emission-tunables compute-server
emission-tunables desktop
emission-tunables file-server
emission-tunables gaming
emission-tunables ll-desktop

Already included '13-linux-phc-0.2.6-for-2.6.18.patch '.

Also, I don't use ArchLinux, so I usually let others create a PKGBUILD.

Re: 2.6.18-emission1: Pathological Euphoria

Can I use nvidia 8774 drivers with this?

I really don't want to use beta drivers as I had to with the viper kernel.

Re: 2.6.18-emission1: Pathological Euphoria

Anyone for a pkg ?

I'm trying to create the new PKGBUILD, but I'm getting some errors with the compilation process.

Can someone post a working config file?

Thanks.

Re: 2.6.18-emission1: Pathological Euphoria

I'm trying to create the new PKGBUILD, but I'm getting some errors with the compilation process.

Any chance you're getting this:

  CC      arch/i386/mm/init.o
arch/i386/mm/init.c: In function 'set_highmem_pages_init':
arch/i386/mm/init.c:326: error: too many arguments to function 'add_one_highpage_init'
make[1]: *** [arch/i386/mm/init.o] Error 1
make: *** [arch/i386/mm] Error 2

That's what I'm getting, using essentailly the same PKGBUILD, config, etc as kerne26viper in the AUR.

What do you think, vipernicus?
