<0> what would be the expected behaviour of setting min-free-kbytes to zero?
<1> dunno
<1> you tried?
<0> I did, to make some oom issues go away while using swappiness=0; just judging from the docs I read, it doesn't strike me as the sort of thing that should, um, work
<1> ah
<2> silly idea: a microkernel which consists only of a tcp/ip stack as way to connect between processes + process/vm/iterrupt/io ports management (which could be accessible through tcp/ip)
<1> cwillu did your try kicking it?
<1> goran?
<1> rofl
<1> wtf
<0> um, ya :)
<0> I guess as long as you dislike the concept of shared memory, that could work :p
<3> could someone give me some hints on what is going wrong? here: http://pastebin.ca/56388
<1> just download the pages before uploading them to the disk
<1> when you're swapping :D
<4> stimpie: nvidia: module license 'NVIDIA' taints kernel.
<4> I think there is an nvidia #channel
<4> stimpie: or save yourself the h***le and find a distro package that installs it
<3> the nvidia driver is working, the issue is with alsa
<3> and what is meant with 'taints'
<4> taint: defile: place under suspicion or cast doubt upon; "sully someone's reputation"
<4> no one knows what it is doing, so it could be doing bad things
<5> Any plan on developing a driver for the Marvell Libertas wifi chipset?
<4> stimpie: what makes you say alsa?
<3> CarlFK, ok thanx ill see where I get from there
<3> CarlFK, loading module snd-intel8x0 (alsa soundcard driver) fails
<6> Has anyone here setup nfs4 with kerberos?
<3> CarlFK, it looks to be an alsa bug http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=117883
<7> hello
<7> Im getting a segafault whe compiling the kernel
<7> with 2.6.14, 2.6.15 and 2.6.16
<4> thats a problem with the compiler, not what you are compiling
<7> I have no problems compiling anything else (im on gentoo)
<4> run memtest
<7> glibc, xorg, openoffice, firefox, gcc... all comiles fine
<7> its just and always the kernel
<7> I tried with different ram, and got the same problem
<7> brb
<8> no threats please :P
<8> one has too ask what the last output was before the compile died
<8> & if you'd tried deselecting that portion of code via the menuconfig
<8> often it only takes one piece of ****ty code that you probably dont need but you selected anyway
<8> are these guenuine kernels or patched dist crap too?
<8> if it's dist generated kernels you'll need too report the issue too your #dist as the actual kernel source might not be the issue at all
<7> its a genuine kernel
<7> from kernel.org
<7> http://pastebin.com/721754
<7> LD init/built-in.o and LD .tmp_vmlinux1 are the last lines that did work
<7> i made the config via menuconfig
<7> :)
<7> i cant even recompile my actual kernel sources
<7> nor can i compile with the default config
<8> but where are the sources from?
<7> from kernel.org
<8> ok it wasn't clear, because you made mention of gentoo earlier
<8> ried with a different gcc?
<7> yes, with 3.3 and 3.4
<8> tried rather
<8> hmm starting too reek of a hardware issue, but you say it compiles other stuff ok?
<7> everything else works fine, i also read about the hardware psibility, I ran a memtest and after several hours a coulple of errors showed up
<8> or is the gcc looking at the files n saying oh yeah this is all uptodate & skipping it with no errors?
<7> So i tried with different(new, from the store) ram, and got the same message
<8> Jj: that wont help, the same source on a different working machine would be a better test
<7> i run make clean before each attepmt
<8> you need too find something that works too elliminate the negatives not keep widening the possabilities
<7> something that works, as in?
<7> cause i can ccompile everything else fine (compiler works)
<8> ie you start with a working machine & compile the same kernel on it
<7> on somebody else's box you mean?
<8> if that fails you ditch that source & try a fresh batch till it works, then try that on your hardware
<8> also booting with a sane kernel
<7> I want to try to compile with a live distro
<8> the fault could be simply the kernel you have running
<7> but i have ubuntu live here and doesnt come with dev stuff
<8> talking bout dist related stuff doesn't help
<8> anyway caffiene time for me
<7> k, thanks for he help
<4> Jj: if memtest is still giving errors, that is a problem
<7> but i only have problems with the kernel, i can compile _everything_ else just fine
<4> so?
<7> if it was memory, my guess it that erros would jump in more places
<4> just a guess
<7> I tried to compile with brand new ram from the store, and got the same problem
<7> so i didnt buy it, cause it didnt solve my problem
<4> I am guessing there are more parts that can cause memtest errors than just the memory chips
<4> like dirt in the ram slots
<7> O_O
<7> hod did dirt gets in there? if i never take them away? (only when i try to compile with new ram)
<7> i hope is not that
<4> I would hope for that
<4> way easier to fix than many of the other posibilites
<4> pull all the memory but one stick, run memtst. if no error, move the stick to the next slot, repeat
<7> ill have to try that on the weekend
<7> good idea tho
<8> Jj: dust comes in with air circulation
<8> the same air which removes heat from the electronic components
<9> im back
<9> i booted with knoppix, and it compiled
<8> Jj_: you might have a lib problem then
<8> I used too have asimilar issue with sid for a few months
<8> other things would compile but krernel wouldn't, then one update it was allcleared up :)
<8> I aint done an update since :)
<8> tis why I run dual boot woody/sid
<8> I drop back too woody if something insane happens & I really need too compile akernel
<8> it's a very good reason too have backups
<8> typically you should backup immediately after you do an update of any kind, then if the following update corrupts something or you have a power out/failed hardware you have something too fall back too
<8> some claim you should do the backup before an update, but then if hardware failsafter the update, you have too repeat the download of packages & the update itself
<8> same deal with new kernels, I run with my current kernel in /boot/bzImage & have last known stable kernel sitting ready at /boot/stable
<8> if I'm doubtful about the stability of arecent kernel I also cp /boot/stable /boot/old before I mv /boot/bzImage /boot/stable
<8> but whatever is my most current sits in /boot/bzImage
<8> uhuh
<10> _RADIOhead, he ho!
<11> aXp: dude :)
<12> hi
<12> I compiled Linux 2.6.16, but I think I messed up something...
<12> I can't enable DMA, it says "Operation not permitted"
<12> which could be my mistake?
<13> the device/or driver doesnt support it?
<12> it used to work with Debian's default kernel
<12> it doesn't work on any device
<12> be it dvd or hd
<12> I think I did some wrong choice in menuconfig, but I can't figure out which...
<13> i dont remember any global dma setting.. start over with a default config..if its an option?
<8> default huh?
<12> I think I found it
<12> it's under PCI IDE Support
<12> I disabled it since I have no PCI IDE adapters, I didn't know it's needed for normal IDE too..
<8> hardware,whats that?
<12> you know, screws, nails...
<12> why is "CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDEDMA_FORCED" marked as "(NEW)" when the help says "This is an old piece of lost code from Linux 2.0 Kernels."?
<8> oh I thought it was a place that held screws, bolts, cemewnt, etc
<8> new as init wasn't available in the last release
<13> gb-default config-the one which is activated after a make mrproper.. its default for a certain arch..
<13> um pci dma i dont think its that.. but try it
<8> the first step in all the make mrpropers I've seen is rm .config
<13> yea and make menucopnfig generated the default.. i gtg
<12> trying the new kernel, brb...
<14> do the kernel dadadadadadadada daaa daaah
<11> gb: Xgl :)
<8> ey?
<11> gb: i try just for few seconds Xgl
<8> wots that a new option in 2.6 too crash your system more rapidly?
<11> gb: :) my 2.6.X
<11> ?
<15> heyo
