[gentoo-user] 2.6 issues.

2003-09-15 Thread Josh Helmer
Hi folks...

I have been playing with 2.6 for a while now (mm-sources-2.6.0-test5).  For 
the most part I am happy with it.  

The only real issue that I have had is logging in.   When I boot into 2.4, I 
can login to my system without any problems.  When I boot into 2.6 and try to 
login as a user the system hangs.  I am able to log in as root and then su - 
to a user, but that's a headache.  I have tried logging in at a prompt, using 
xdm and using kdm...  All fail.   On the other hand, I CAN log in as a user 
by ssh without problems.

I have added my users to the tty group, but that doesn't seem to help.

When the login hangs, I try to do a SysRq+T to get the state, but the machine 
slowly prints (literally takes about 10 seconds and you can see each 
character printed individually):

SysRq : Show State

and then quits.  From that point on none of the SysRq functions will work at 
all.

Any ideas what I am doing wrong?

Josh

What type of hardwre?  Kernel (or other critical components) built with wild
optimizations?

 wild optimizations?

I am running it on a Toshiba Satellite 5005-S507 laptop (1.1Ghz pentium3, 512M 
RAM, Nvidia video, buggy ACPI).  I don't have any special optimizations.  My 
CFLAGS is just set to '-march=pentuim3 -O2 -pipe' - nothing too radical.

As for the kernel config, I left things pretty generic.  I don't believe that 
I have any unusual optimizations enabled...  Here is my full config:

[ config snipped ]

I don't see anything glaringly wrong.  I note that you don't have parallel port
and PC style printer configed.  One thing you can try is to remove ACPI support.
 Poweroff functions/hardware are frequently a cause of problems.  Also, you
might want to remove Frame Buffer support, especially flaky with nvidia.

Experiment with one thing at the time, and observe the results.
