The newest "stable" Lolo-sources have a problem on my athlon MP-2400 dual machine. The problem is that the machine seems to "freeze" every few seconds untill you hit a key on the keyboard and then it will process for several seconds and pseudo hang again. This process can go on indefinately with no ill affects. This is definately a problem with one of the patches enabled because 1) vanilla-sources 2.4.20 does not exhibit this problem and 2) disabling SMP in the kernel config also aleviates the problem. I will start hunting the culprit down if I don't hear from anyone that knows quickly which patch might be the problem. dave Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
This problem still exists in -r2_pre4 but has been corrected in -r2_pre5... can anyone speak to the exact patch changes between these two versions to keep this problem from coming back? lostlogic you listening?
I removed the O(1) sched patch from ck4. The issue you had I'm sure stems from this. I do not think you'll have to worry about it being reintroduced any time soon. More info on patch changes are in the Changelog. Have a good one, Jay
