<0> to install kernel 2.6.17-rc1 do i first need to install kernel 2.6.16.1?
<1> vge: no
<1> why 2.6.16.1? hehe
<2> hello
<2> does anybody know how i can turn off the route cache in the kernel?
<0> balrog-kun: why 2.6.16.1? hehe >> bcm43xx NEEDS kernel 2.6.16 or higher (thats what big boys tell me
<1> 2.6.17-rc1 satisfies this condition :)
<0> whats this thing about kernel patching or something?
<3> is there some sort of feature that i can enable to control mouse sensitivity? i have a razer diamondback and i cannot lower the mouse sensitivity in xorg any lower
<4> razer diamonback mouse?
<5> hi, I have a Dell Inspiron 8000 and the Page Up/Down keys aren't recognised by any apps, even xev, and no messages are shown in dmesg, can someone help?
<4> Can?Probably;Wantto?Probably not.
<6> hey i have a problem with acpi on my Sony Vaio SZ
<6> when i boot my linux, it doesn't recognize the fn keys
<6> but it does after a suspend-to-ram
<6> some other weird things happen after a suspend-to-ram
<6> anyone interested in helping?
<4> ariel: count your lucky stars then, usually people have a problem after a suspend, not before :)
<6> hehe
<6> well, i have problems before and after, but not the same :)
<6> it's very odd
<4> tis why I no longer use it at all
<6> what are you using then?
<6> hibernation doesn't work either :)
<4> I just make certain I have sufficient power for my notebooks instead
<4> solar & two toshiba notebooks
<4> & 150Ahr of batteries
<6> yeah but if you're walking around on campus all day you can't really have your laptop turned on the whole time
<4> hoping too up that too 400Ahr soon though
<4> campus?
<6> and turning it off between each time ****s
<4> I usually live in the bush :)
<6> lol
<4> oh no a Lamer mating call
<4> you hunting them too?
<4> ariel: I don't get it why is turning it off any different too using suspend?
<6> coz suspend is much faster
<4> not so fast when it's stuffed & you cant use anything :)
<6> true, but normally it should work :)
<4> who says? :)
<6> i do :p
<4> hehe, but you're not the boss :P
<7> haha gb gave me this grief when i asked about a suspend problem a while back
<4> nnod: did you learn anything from it back then?
<6> nnod, i guess he didn't help you that much :)
<7> well i fixed my problem, and i still use suspend
<7> although i have to admit i have a new problem now...
<6> nnod, neat, help me fix mine! :)
<6> what's yours now?
<4> ariel: unfortunately even if you do manage too fix it, it wont be long before it breaks again if you keep using bleeding edge kernels
<6> so then, there's no way to have a decent kernel on a laptop?
<7> now my system locks up just before X is restarted
<6> a kernel that can actually suspend and wake up properly?
<7> ariel: have you tried swsusp2?
<8> suspend to disk works fine to me suspend to ram did i look at 2 hours ago and started scratching behind my ears like hmmzz
<6> nnod, seen anything in xorg's log?
<8> now i read here some realy ****y ****y experience :D
<6> nnod, no coz my main issue is before the suspend, not after
<7> ariel: i haven't looked
<6> so i doubt using swsusp2 would help
<7> oh yeah, of course
<4> I found suspend too disk worked on a 2.2 kernel for most things except my 802.11, which I needed more then all the other crap & upgrade too 2.4, now I dont bother with it :)
<4> that was back in my potato days
<6> i ran a potato as well, but didn't have a laptop back then
<8> gb did you try suspend too disk on 2.6 ? or the hardware is old ?
<4> ^willie^: hahahahahaah
<8> :D
<4> I cant boot the thing with anything higher then 2.4.18
<8> here it work with a charm on the 2.6.16 kernel
<8> it is booted up within 20 sec :
<8> :D
<4> but at
<7> ^willie^: what laptop do you have
<4> 11:43:09 up 83 days, 18:42, 31 users, load average: 0.08, 0.08, 0.03
<8> *click* .. *click* ......... taadaaaa
<4> it's sufficing :)
<8> topline amicus 3600 via apolo promedia based machine p3 850 mhz
<8> apollo**
<8> 83 day`s ?? let me check my gateway machine :P
<4> all you guys with your fancy new hardware :P
<8> i just did put it on afther moving and did not even look at it since then :D
<4> ^willie^: that hardly counts, most of my routers stay up for years :P
<4> this is a box I actually use :P
<4> hence the 31 users on it :P
<8> 04:38:10 up 115 days, 15:43, 2 users, load average: 0.06, 0.01, 0.00
<4> 2users hardly counts :P
<4> & logging in 29 more users before you do an uptime dont count either :P
<8> uuhh it is an gateway/firewall :D
<8> dsl modem bridged the box is doing his task`s and from there one cable to an cisco catalyst switch :D
<4> one of my routers had it's hard drive die at 400days & continued operating for another 200days before it ran outa ram
<8> lol
<4> apache died for some reason on it though :)
<8> is it posible to unmount the disk or chroot to an other if it is posible to hotplug i did hear something about that but it is tweaky
<8> mabey sysrq
<8> -e
<8> here did sysrq started a few times afther an powerfail just out of da blue
<4> ^willie^: yes if you run on a ramdisk, you can plug drives in & out no probs
<8> killing all services and forget to reboot the machine
<4> thats easiest way
<8> hmmzzz
<4> or yo run on one disk & you can hotplug others
<4> I've done it with disks of same geometry
<8> on normal ide ?
<4> It's possible with differring geometries but without special hardware it can cause problems/fires
<4> yup
<8> here my pc get stuck when i connect an disk when it is running :D
<8> but is have an ****y promise chip onboard
<7> can't you get hdparm to rescan?
<8> no the whole machine locks
<4> ^willie^: I'm talking nothing fancy single drive per channel
<4> try too do master/slave &
<4> it causes problems
<4> arrgh notebook is getting loaded again
<8> 3 day`s ago on this pc my power connector in the disk whas a kind of broken i did soldering it again now is it working fine but the disk did 4 times go off for 0,5 sec and started spinning up again and this box crashes
<8> 2 drivers per channel
<8> 2x 160Gb and 2x 200Gb :D
<4> yup, investigate hdparm
<8> 720Gb total with 675Gb efective space
<4> you can tune your drives & I recommend you do
<8> i whas not posibe to do ctrl+alt+F1 to get the console anymore
<8> i whas not able to reach the console atm
<7> ^willie^: i can't switch either
<4> ^willie^: x died?
<7> soemthing happened to my keyboard layout after an upgrade or something
<4> ssh in & restart x inside a screen
<4> the kernel vm might have killed x during the upgrade
<4> but dont make sense why your still typing in it :)
<4> if you are
<8> total machine
<8> capslock or ctrl+alt+del where not responding anymore
<8> hmmzz ok i'll try next time it happend
<7> gb yeah i've restarted since, i figure it's a debian thing. my bro has the same prob.
<4> ok you compiled in sysrq?
<4> nah it's user error :P
<8> gb i nope not compilid in by me but in the rom kernel of the machine :(
<8> i don't want to mess with the rom kernel i have the sources but don't wana start messing with it
<4> sysrq is one main reason I recompile kernels on fresh installs :)
<4> that & too get rid of initrd
<8> first think i do is some echo to /proc/???
<8> to set sysrq off
<4> sysrq has saved my bacon on a number of times when I bofh'd for orgs
<8> i can always set it on when i need it
<4> ^willie^: not if the machine is dead for anything other then sysrq :P
<8> gb on an mips machine "without" ps or keyboard interface thats controlled via serial link or ssh did sysrq started without any user logged in on the machine it did kill all services for an not detecting of memory error
<8> high mem 0kn low mem 0kb
<8> happend afther an powerfail since then i disabled the sysrq in /proc and it is still running on the same ram modules
<4> ^willie^: I've never ever had an issue with the sysrq kernel hack
<8> 20:01:14 up 18 days, 16:08, 1 user, load average: 0.15, 0.03, 0.01
<8> since i set sysrq off
Return to
