Re: kernel26mm 2.6.8.1.mmX

No luck (or skill) in getting the kernel to find my drive as sda either. I think I'm gonna give up and stick to some old kernel =/

No, nothing there. Maybe I should hammer it a little to get it awakening.

Re: kernel26mm 2.6.8.1.mmX

I did. I tried root=/dev/sda but it just doesn't work. Here's my dmesg if it tells you more than me. I'm currently on IDE disk but I guess my SATA should be seen anyway:

I did. I tried root=/dev/sda but it just doesn't work. Here's my dmesg if it tells you more than me. I'm currently on IDE disk but I guess my SATA should be seen anyway:

It should be something like root=/dev/sdaX where X is the number of your root partition in that disk, for instance for me is: root=/dev/sda5 since / is the 5th partition in my disk. And it seems like your SATA controller is nicely probed so that should be it.

Re: kernel26mm 2.6.8.1.mmX

SATA gets probed, but where's the disk under my dev now? I'm booting from /dev/hda and that dmesg was from that. I can't find /dev/sdX or /dev/sdaX in anywhere under the /dev so it's not there. Nothing in /dev/scsi either.

I'll try Walt's suggestion.

Re: kernel26mm 2.6.8.1.mmX

By chance have you tried 2.8.9-rc1 ?

Re: kernel26mm 2.6.8.1.mmX

got mm4 built ... with nvidia (with help from dp & tpowa)

Had to edit config file to remove MEGARAID support ...... by anyway

run nvidia with --extract-only

in newly created dir. look for nv.c

then change

case PM_SAVE_STATE:

with

case PM_SUSPEND:

(hint near end of file !!!)

save & then you can run installer by using

./nvidia-installer (from console)

Re: kernel26mm 2.6.8.1.mmX

hi
i added a nvidia-mm package to staging
no patching by hand needed anymore
pacman -S nvidia-mm
it is possible that you might get an error if you uninstall the package
and try to deinstall normal nvidia package afterwards
simply do a pacman -S nvidia after deinstalling nvidia-mm
to avoid these problems

enjoy

Re: kernel26mm 2.6.8.1.mmX

UPDATE to nvidia-mm-s2
now it is possbile to use kernel26mm and stock kernel parallel :-)
without recompiling with every change from kernel26mm to "normal" kernel

Re: kernel26mm 2.6.8.1.mmX

samuel,

your drive is detected as ide0:

Probing IDE interface ide0... 
 hda: SAMSUNG SV4012H, ATA DISK drive 
 ide0 at 0x1f0-0x1f7,0x3f6 on irq 14

try /dev/hdaN as root in lilo

Re: kernel26mm 2.6.8.1.mmX

Thanks dp, I got it working finally as sda. Solution was to switch sata cable from first sata port in mobo to third. Apparently those 2 ports are somehow different. My mobo is EPoX 8KDA3+ 250 Gb if somebody else has the same problem.

- all SATA (under scsi) is now built-in (hope to get feedback from sata people) --- the depreatched SATA is not built

I'm using the mm1 kernel, and I have a GA-7N400 with a SiI 3512 SATA controller.  I had been using a 2.6.7 vanilla kernel patched for SATA support.  It was kind of rough making the switch over because I didn't pay attention to the fact that my my main hard drive (/dev/hde) was now /dev/sda.

All I did after install to get it working was boot using the mm kernel, give root password for maintenance, remount the fs rw, mount /boot, change fstab and grub's device.map and run grub-install.

But in any case, it runs really well.  I haven't had any trouble whatsoever with the kernel.  Thanks for all your hard work!  big_smile

I'm compiling the mm4 kernel now, so we'll se how it goes.  If I'm not back tomorrow, you know what happened. wink


fffft!

Re: kernel26mm 2.6.8.1.mmX

hi

i get really bad 3d performance with nvidia-mm, or atleast since i installed  nvidia-mm & kernel26-mm

here are my libGLs:

 /usr/lib/libGLw.so.1.0.0
 /usr/lib/libGLU.so.1.3.060001
 /usr/lib/libGL.la
 /usr/lib/libGLw.so.1 -> libGLw.so.1.0.0
 /usr/lib/libGLw.so -> libGLw.so.1
 /usr/lib/libGLU.so.1 -> libGLU.so.1.3.060001
 /usr/lib/libGLU.so -> libGLU.so.1
 /usr/lib/libGLcore.so.1.0.6111
 /usr/lib/libGLcore.so.1 -> libGLcore.so.1.0.6111
 /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.0.6111
 /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 -> libGL.so.1.0.6111
 /usr/lib/libGL.so -> /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so

for example, enemy territory runs with very low fps now.

dmesg gave me this about nvidia:

nvidia: no version for "struct_module" found: kernel tainted.
nvidia: module license 'NVIDIA' taints kernel

anybody expiriencing the same?

EDIT:
uninstalled kernel26mm & nvidia-mm
reinstalled nvidia & nforce pkgs
et is back at maxfps...
