Kernel 3.6.10 nrjQL for ROSA 2012.0 / 2012.1 & MDV 2010 2011

[GiuX]

Si, l'avevo già fatto con il servizio cpupower, ma volevo qualche soluzione ufficiale... non vorrei che cambiando i file di configurazione poi con un aggiornamento risolutivo dovessi riandare a cambiarlo...

P.S. ho letto che "atd" dovrebbe fare le stesse cose di "crond" (il manuale di atd indica esplicitamente che sarà unito con crond...) pensavo quindi di disattivarlo completamente....

[GiuX]

P.S. Nicco, ho notato che è ricomparso quel problemino sulla temperatura, ora sta sempre sopra quota 60°...

Quale Kernel stai usando?

tutti i Kernel nrj sono adesso ONDEMAND

mentre su QL in base ai flavour, su quelli dove volevo dare maggiore reattività come:
Kernel QL desktop, realtime sono PERFORMANCE, quindi possono scaldare di più,
ma puoi sempre usare il comando cpupower per cambiare il profilo in ONDEMAND

diversamente, quelli realizzati con in mente principalmente, il risparmio enegetico:
Kernel QL laptop, netbook sono predefiniti come ONDEMAND

la cosa potrebbecambiare in seguito, perchè sembra che ONDEMAND vada bene
e non rallenti ill kernel, e cosi in futuro tutti i QL potrebbero essere ONDEMAND


Ciao, NicCo

[GiuX]

sto usando kernel-nrjQL-laptop

[Alexander83]

Non so quantificare il miglioramento

Dopo qualche giorno di utilizzo posso senz'altro dire che la batteria parecchio: 3 ore e 10 minuti di riproduzione video con vlc prima di arrivare alla soglia del 10% (che nel mio caso è la soglia che fa accendere la spia di batteria scarica).
Con la 2012.0 riuscivo ad arrivare a qualche minuto in più (con kernel nrj-laptop) ma solamente perchè potevo regolare la luminosità dello schermo più bassa (cosa che non riesco ancora a fare con la 2012.1)!
Aspettiamo con ansia i nuovi kernel...

È un problema mio e solo mio?

COOL MAN! LEGENDARY! As we say in MEXICO MUY CHIDO Y MUY CHIGON this awesome kernel im goig to use in orvitux branch from unity linux

Hi. I've been running the following for some time:

Code: Select all

3.2.18-nrj-desktop-1mib
dkms-minimal-2.0.19-27.2-mdv2011.0.noarch
dkms-2.0.19-27.2-mdv2011.0.noarch
dkms-nvidia-current-295.40-2-mdv2011.0.x86_64
x11-driver-video-nvidia-current-295.40-2-mdv2011.0.x86_64
microcode-0.20120313-1-mib2011.0.noarch
dracut-017-16-rosa.lts2012.0.noarch
VirtualBox-4.2-4.2.6_82870_mdv2011.0-1.x86_64

The processor is Intel i7-2600K. The microcode does not automatically load. NicCo suggested try a newer kernel, some time ago, and these new nrjQL kernels look interesting, so I installed:

Code: Select all

kernel-nrjQL-desktop-3.6.6-69mib-1-1-mib2011.0.x86_64
kernel-nrjQL-desktop-devel-3.6.6-69mib-1-1-mib2011.0.x86_64

For a long time, I've had a problem with installkernel scripts failing to make an initrd with dracut. I thought I understood NicCo to say the 2012 rosa dracut to solve some problem and I have that one installed but, still no initrd got created for this kernel at installation. I can workaround by using mkinitrd-mkinitrd, so that is not my problem.

Perhaps because of this or for some other reason, a menu.lst entry does not get created but I can do that, also.

What I can't fix, yet, is that dkms fails to build the nvidia module. ISTR booting to a new kernel might succeed to build it when it fails at install time, so I made the initrd, the menu entry, and booted to nrjQL-desktop kernel. I will say that, for whatever reason, the boot seemed quite a bit more rapid. When the dkms nvidia build failed during boot, also, I did Ctrl-Alt-Del back to the old kernel, as I did not want harddrake or someone messing with my xorg.conf.

Booted to my long-working 3.2.18-nrj-desktop-1mib, I did this:

Code: Select all

[root@localhost rolf]# dkms build -m nvidia-current -v 295.40-2 -k 3.6.6-nrjQL-desktop-69mib

Kernel preparation unnecessary for this kernel.  Skipping...

It looks like you don't have the kernel sources installed...
Or, at least uprmf tells me that the file not found (asm/system.h) is part of the kernel-sources package.

Also the build process already tells you that something is wrong in you build system: "ERROR: Kernel configuration is invalid"

It would be easy enough to install the kernel-source rpm and I'll try it in the morning. It's just that, for all the other kernels, kernel-devel is enough for building drivers.
Thanks!

Ok. A google search for "dkms nvidia build fail asm/system.h not found" brings up a launchpad bug as the first result:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sour ... bug/993506

I tried to follow the workaround, copying the arm headers to x86. For each "file not found" error, I copied the header, one at a time, tried the dkms build, copied the next reported missing header, tried to build, etc.

Code: Select all

[root@localhost asm]# cp  /usr/src/linux-3.6.6-69mib/arch/arm/include/asm/system.h /usr/src/linux-3.6.6-nrjQL-desktop-69mib/arch/x86/include/asm/

I see later in that bug advice to edit the nvidia source and, finally, a report that the bug is fixed in 295.53

I might try to update dkms-nvidia but I think I saw some problems with that/2011/Xorg.

In Rosa Fresh, I am already at nvidia-310.19

Code: Select all

[rolf@localhost ~]$ uname -r
3.6.10-nrjQL-desktop-69rosa

The installkernel scripts made an initrd and, to me, a new, complex menu entry in grub2/grub.cfg

All seems to work well and the nvidia module built without error. Good job!
