extra :: kernel 2.6.10.mm{1,2,3...}

dp · 2005-01-04 12:12:31

the 2.6.10.mm1 built without trouble and runs without trouble (for me)

the full changelog can be found here:

WARNING: as always: use at own risk

comments welcome

comments on the chaotic and really complex PKGBUILD not really welcome ;-)

I think you missed the PKGBUILD... :-)

it's a pkg from extra:

I'm sorry.

With

$ uname -r
2.6.10-mm1-ARCH

I get

$ tail /var/log/errors -n 6

Thought you should know Everything else seems to work fine. Thanks for the pkg.

I've installed and booted kernel26-mm without problem but X refused to start (after installing the nvidia-mm 1.0.6111-s2 package).

What should I do to make this work?

what version are you speaking about? the mm1 works fine wor me, but mm2 has trouble for X for me, so i'm waiting for a mm3 for extra

it is also possible that the nvidia-mm pkg needs an update or something ... check the logs of X starting (/var/log/X...)

do you use swap? how much free mem do you have, when this happens?

Cotton · 2005-01-10 06:57:36

I'm using kernel26-mm1 with 512K RAM & similar swap size. Nothing obvious shown in the X logs (ie no errors).

Guess I'll have to wait until nvidia-mm drivers are updated.

Mr Green · 2005-01-10 09:24:08

6111 drivers will not work with 2.6.10 unless patched ...

... 66.29 should work, though.

Mr Green · 2005-01-10 11:59:08

6629 will not work with some graf cards (including mine :cry: )

Cotton · 2005-01-10 20:26:19

So where can I find (or how do I make) the nvidia-mm 1.0.6629 package?

I use swap, 512 MB, same as my RAM.

Mem:    513032k total,   498808k used,    14224k free,    48020k buffers
Swap:   497972k total,    12008k used,   485964k free,   289052k cached

This is what my system looks like to top whenever I start spamd after login. If I have spamd as a DAEMON, I get the OOM errors I posted. After I start spamd after login all my RAM and swap gets used and everything freezes. Hope it helps. By the way I've never had any problem like this before.

sounds like a memory leak to me :-(

mm3 is compiling atm ...

Mr Green · 2005-01-11 14:04:14

does mm3 include patches that have been added to stock Arch kernel ?

i'll check ...

EDIT: i'm not sure ... the _same_ patch is NOT in the mm3 ... but it is maybe in some of the other patches i have no time to check now ...

Taz76 · 2005-01-13 02:53:58

I'm wondering.. what's different with the mm-kernel? I only read that it's more experimental patches.. any speed-difference? does it support reiser4 perhaps? would be interesting to try out reiser4

yes, it has reiser4 in it .. and some other changes ...

Is there an nvidia-mm-1.0.6629 PKGBUILD available yet?

I still have to run xorg with the 2D vesa driver as nvidia-mm-1.0.6111 doesn't work with the 2.6.10-mm3-ARCH kernel.
