Kernel 3.19

The kernel devolopers rewrote 'power off' for the kernel 3.19. I modified the Nemo patch.

I compiled the RC1 of kernel 3.19 recently. Unfortunately it doesn't boot. I recognized a lot of SATA and filesystem errors during the start. The problem is, that the kernel developers have changed a lot of code for SCSI, SATA, and filesystems.

libata changes: git.kernel.org

SCSI changes: git.kernel.org

ext4 changes: git.kernel.org

New SATA standard 3.2: phoronix.com

Linux 3.19-rc1 - merge window closed

etc.

Hi,

I tested the RC2 of kernel 3.19 this morning. Unfortunately it has the same errors as the RC1. I haven't found out what the problem is, yet. I tried some old patches and I looked for a hint in the git of kernel.org. But I found nothing. PLEASE HELP.

Rgds,

Christian

It was expected. They look to do away with problems which concern general users that perhaps work to our advantage... In the next kernel they plan major overhall of crucial parts so maybe we should prepare for that. I think that if the latest kernel that works which is quite new + the latest distribution give us admirable results we can be satisfied with that. In the future maybe a speciallized group of our own can be established and convert things that prove to a obstacle beforhand? Well, it doesn't matter right not as we have much more pressing matters to attend to: http://linuxg.net/how-to-install-supert ... x-systems/

SuperTuxKart 0.8.2 needs at least OpenGL 3.1. Unfortunately our latest unofficial Mesa has only OpenGL 3.0 support. And the new Mesa is 15% slower than our latest unofficial Mesa on our AMIGA one X1000. Therefore we can't play STK 0.8.2 on our A1-X1000. Sorry for this bad news.

Linus Torvalds didn't release the RC3 this morning. I saw SCSI patches in the GIT last week, therefore I tried the GIT version but without any success. Alex Perez told me that he has some patches for functional SATA. If I get these patches from him then I'll compile the RC of kernel 3.19 straight away.

I have released the RC4 of kernel 3.19 for our AMIGA one X1000 recently.

New:

Linux 3.19-rc4 announcement by Linus Torvalds
Linux 3.19-rc4 Kernel Released
Linux 3.19-rc3 Is A Quiet Release Coming One Day Late
Linux 3.19-rc2 Is A Tiny Release
Linux 3.19-rc1 Kernel Released Ahead Of Schedule

Known A1-X1000 problem: Mac-on-Linux network support doesn't work. Mac OS X 10.4.11 freezes if you activate the TUN/TAP kernel module (device driver).

Download: vmlinux-3.19.0-rc4-KVM-PR-AMIGA_one_X1000.tar.bz2



PLEASE test the RC4.

Thanks,

Christian

Hi,
tested under Ubuntu 12.04.

No problem, sound, network, GLXInfo, SuperTuxKart, all works fine

See here for glxinfo results :

PS : Same question than for AmigaWorld forum, how do you do to post thumbnails picture on this forum ? Thank you.
