<0> Pardon me, but does anybody know about (or a channel about) multibooting, specifically use of the ranish partition manager?
<1> one question
<1> where is the image of kernel when i got it compiled?
<1> i cant remember
<1> arch -.-
<2> arch/x86/boot/vmlinuz probably
<2> s/x86/i386
<3> GONZA: depends on what you did too build the image
<4> arch/<yourarch>/boot/zImage
<3> balrog-kun: no for arm it aint :P
<3> ok you didn't allow for gzip/bzip compiled :)
<3> so like I originally said locationof images depends on how you built it
<3> make zImage==updatedb;locate zImage
<3> make bzImage==updatedb;locate bzImage
<4> gb_: yes, it is, for arm in particular
<4> :) when i do "make" alone it produces arch/arm/boot/zImage



<5> I guess they'd be armless enuf but :)
<5> doh
<2> gb: arch/arm/boot/zImage
<2> gb: but we have to hit it with another program to make it work for u-boot, not sure about other loaders
<4> with Garux you have to recompile the bootloader for every new kernel image
<4> actually relink, not recompile
<2> ouch
<2> almost as bad as lilo
<1> i installed the new kernel but i cant makes my cdrom work ?
<1> where can be it ?
<5> blah
<6> here is a problem ... the memory allocated is very high ( about 90% of the memory is used ---Fron top--- ) but the %mem of each process seems to be normal . this happens after running cedega . If i reboot the machine the memory allocated seems to be normal ( about 4% ) is it a kernel issue ?
<5> gengid: does it happen with other programs?
<5> if not I'd say you have an issue with that program & not the kernel
<6> the memory not seems to be flushed after a prcess is stopped
<5> any process or just that process?
<6> Can i check how the memory is used by the kernel ?
<5> try this after running the program killall -9 program_name as listed in ps auxw
<6> k
<6> but i tried to send the sig 9 trought top
<5> if the program hasn't exited properly & is still running then it's a tad hard too flush the memory unless the vm or you kill the program
<4> maybe it doesn't need to be flushed, maybe the memory will be freed when it's needed
<6> how can i list zombie process
<6> ??
<5> ps auxw|grep Z
<5> or grep for Z might only work in top
<5> can't remember if a process is listed as a zombie in ps
<6> not seems to work ...
<6> now my memory is at 95 %
<6> every time i do something it going up
<6> top list me 1 zombie but i cant see it or have the PID
<5> I know if you killall -9 init that will definitely clear it
<6> it will kill X and all the other process in the init ?
<5> yup
<5> in top when you order by M whats on top?
<5> you may need too kill or restart x if the offending app is x related
<6> X but it take 5% of the memory
<5> try a killall -1 X
<6> how can i force the kernel to reallocate all the memory ?
<6> without rebooting the machine
<2> reallocate it to what ?
<6> its because there is a zombie process who cant be listed
<6> and it take 90% of the memory
<6> top cannot list it but it say in the header there is one zombie process
<6> even if i call the init script the memory still allocated
<6> i want to force the kernel to deallocate the memory
<6> is it possible ?
<6> or there is a way to list "who" had allocated the memory
<6> if i reboot the machine its return to the normal
<6> but its a program who do this
<6> its possible to know how the memory was allocated or not ?
<6> can i create an output for the kernel where he can store the data and ill acess it later
<6> in real time i understand its a little hard but for a short period of time ... just when i run the program
<6> and i close it ...
<6> ???
<4> ps lists zombie processes
<7> hey i need some help with my new kernal
<7> i currently cannot access internet
<7> i think it is related to the ip6table module



<7> i need to know how to load this module into my kernal
<7> ?
<7> im currently using my old kernal
<7> is there anyone here who can help?
<7> hello?
<4> modprobe loads modules
<7> is that an app?
<4> but i doubt it's ip6tables
<4> yup, a basic command
<7> i compiled the new kernal and everything and it does everything except connect to the internet
<7> my friend also has the same issue
<4> you missed some option
<7> in xconfig?
<7> my friend said that we loaded all modules
<7> ?
<7> or at least all that the main website requested
<7> hes compiled working kernals before
<7> he says there are a bunch of options in xconfig, could u be more specific?
<4> there a whole lot of them, i don't know which one you're missing
<4> i normally compile all network related stuff statically, not as modules
<7> hes used the same reference every time
<5> bloody morons
<5> why are these people so vague all the time?
<2> anyone up on flash translation layers ?
<5> huh?
<2> write levelling and such
<2> ftl.ko nftl.ko etc
<5> oh whenyou said flash I was thinking of that awful thing which I'm lucky enough not too experience in lynx :)
<2> oh :)
<2> hardly the channel for that crap now is it :)
<5> theoddbot: well thats why Isaid huh, because thats what I thought too :)
<2> well, i've written a simple one
<5> you'd be suprised thenumber of lemmings who come in here for help with their messydos issues
<2> and i want to figure out what the magic device name i should use to make it the root is
<5> I have a feeling most of them are simply trolls though
<5> sorry dunno anything bout it
<2> yeah, its cool, trial and error is the only way to learn anyway :)
<5> hehe no not true
<2> best way then :)
<5> I prefer too learn from other peoples trial & errors that I read about so I dont trash filesystems like they do
<2> i'm having entirely too much fun here anyway :)
<5> fun, you should be out there working propping up all our poor politicians & beaurocrats :)
<2> that doesnt sound like fun :)
<5> theoddbot: thats why I'm not doing it either :)
<2> what about naming conventions in general
<2> when i load my driver, /dev/roftl/disc0/disc
<5> I call everything rubbish :)
<2> is created
<2> would it be safe to ***ume the boot name is root=roftla
<2> or something
<5> dunno,im clueless remember :)
<2> you're not a politicial are you ? :)
<5> apolitical maybe in that I dont give a **** about any of them :)
<5> I do remember reading sumwhere that linus hates naming conventions that revolve around things like scsi
<2> who wouldnt :)
<5> but I'm not the person too tell you how it should be
<5> people with predominantly scsi devices :)
<2> init/do_mounts.c seems to have the magic i need
<2> yep that did it :)
<5> its not magic, just all luck :)
<5> you just got lucky in your trial & errors
<2> hey first go and everything, give the magic file some credit :)
<2> there were no errors, this driver has progressed so smoothly its scarey
<2> i didnt even crash the device once :/
<2> feels like im missing out
<5> theoddbot: thats no good, you must have done something wrong, go try again
<5> hmm
<2> ?
<5> uhuh
<5> hmm
<8> anyone uses yast for updating kernel?
<9> hi
<9> one stupid question the diferente with * and m whats ?
<10> quick question if the on die DRM chips will be released with intel is the kernel going to support that? and why or why not?
