OT: Linux 2.6.0-test9 Running for 24 hours!
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
I've just recently install a test kernel for linux 2.6 and I've had it
running solid for 24 hours running in X!!!
Sorry, but just had to let out the excitement as this is the first time
I've ever tried running any kernel that was not considered an official
stable release. I've noticed several other people have been running
linux 2.6 so I was curious if somone could answer a few questions.
I've noticed swapd is running at 98-99% cpu usage, but it doesn't seem
to be majorly impacting system performance, any clue as to why or what I
should look for? Also, when I load the mouse driver after X has started,
(as it isn't auto-loading for some reason), the mouse jumps around for a
few seconds before I can use it. Also, now when I restart into X using
my Linux 2.4.22 kernel, the keyboard doesn't work at all. I have to ssh
in from another machine to kill X so I can access the console where the
keyboard works fine. I'm using XFree86 4.3.0 which I manually installed
and re-running the install script didn't seem to help. Now I seems to
be forced to use the test kernel if I want X windows.
I'm using linux-2.6.0-test9 on a P4 2.4 w/ HT.
I can provide extra info if anyone wants, but I'm not sure what all one
might need.
