Actually, I experienced freezes with AMD64 using any frequency scaling in the kernel.

I was testing things using 32-bit mplayer in a chroot to play a Real Audio stream. As soon as I took out all frequency scaling of my kernel, the system was rock solid.

What does that means ? It means that it uses the ABI of g++ 4.0 which is version 2. Similar to how some have c102 appended which was 1.02 or 1.0.2 or something like that.

So, I was wondering if anyone had made (or knew of) official or unofficial Sarge AMD64 installation cds with 2.6.12? If not, I guess I'll have to try rolling my own. dual core opterons are supported by all kernels. my quad dual core works on 2.6.5 and 2.6.11 out of the box. dual core are exactly like dual cpu. the only 2.6.12 "support" is to show them correctly in /proc/cpuinfo as part of the same die. kernels < 2.6.12 will show each core as different cpus. no big deal. Wow. Finally someone who can give definite info! You are running AMD64 Debian Sarge, right? So, no kernel hangs or lockups with dual-core processors, then? My vendor informed me that they has problems with Fedora Core (all versions) so couldn't ship with Fedora preinstalled on the dual-core opteron machine we ordered. So we had to go with SuSE instead.

No you can't, if you can it's a bug and should be fixed. The problem is that the filename of the library does not change while the ABI does change. This means that the new version actually has to conflict with the old version, since you obviously can't install 2 files with the same name, nor would you be able to find the correct library even if you could. Anyway, it's going to rather hard to properly get things installed in unstable while this transition is going on. If you want to be able to install packages without such problems, you should be using testing instead. Kurt -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Prompted by this thread, I went to install popcon and it doesn't seem to be available for amd64; is this right?

Could you check what mode your sata controller is in, in the bios? On my ICH5R board I had to put it in the native/enhanced mode rather than the default combined mode for it to work. It does work way better in native mode anyhow, except if you want to install windows you will need a floppy to load the native sata driver since it won't be emulating an old ide controller at all. Due to this, many boards ship with the emulation mode enabled (and Dell won't even give you an option to turn that crap off).

Sorry, I use WD drives with my Sil3112, which works fine. I won't touch seagate disks at the moment, especially given what I read from the linux ide guy. It seemed that in his opinion the first seagate sata drives had bugs in the sata implementation that were bad enough that they should never have released it. Not sure if they have gotten it right since, but it didn't make me want to run out and buy one. Does it detect the drives at all? Do you have bios software raid disabled (like you should normally)?

One is stepping 8, the other is 10. 10 supports powernow and is 90nm. Works fine. Matching clockrates is essential. Even if the bios supported mismatched clocks, the kernel assumes all cpu's are the same speed. I don't know if one dual-core and one single core can be used together. I've been wondering that myself. Some kernel things make be tuned (or even assume) the number of cpu's is a power of 2, or at least divisible by 2.

The same goes for 1.3 really, but I'm not sure it is a quite as obvious edit to debian/rules. I'm running a 32-bit OS on it, which actually proved more stable because the LFS support on 64-bit apache seemed buggy (I was too stressed out with the release to properly investigate and submit a bug though).
