Anyone got the same problem ? I have the same problem, I'm running 2.6.15-r1. I was thinking it was hardware related, as I've been unable to find any similar cases in forum/list/web searches. Maybe I'm not searching for the 'right' terms, but I've been operating Gentoo for about a month now and this problem has persisted.

I've never heard of it, though I will definitely check it out. Thanks adj, for asking the question that I hadn't gotten around to asking yet, and thanks Bob for the suggestions.

Anyone got the same problem ? I can't actually say. However, if it's the dhcpcd that comes with net-misc/dhcp then that client has a persistence problem and the standalone client - net-misc/dhcpcd is a better choice. Or perhaps - net-misc/pump, might be a better choice? Yes, I didn't answer your question as I don't have a working knowledge of the kernel and the client other than the persistence issue seen on another Linux on an ia64 platform.

Re: [gentoo-user] kernel 2.6.15
I downgraded my kernel to 2.6.15-r1 and used genkernel config file to compile the new kernel. Now everything works as it should be. Thanks, Tom! Regards!

Re: [gentoo-user] kernel 2.6.15
I am using genkernel --menuconfig ... I'm choosing all the modules I believe will be useful to me. That's why I don't know if something is missing and how can I find it out. By the way, I'm using psmouse. I'll post here as soon as I get home.

[gentoo-user] kernel 2.6.15
hi, there, yersterday I compiled for the first (and 2nd, 3rd, ...) time gentoo-sources-2.6.15-r7. and many things seemed different from 2.6.14. one of them is about preemption. I tried the desktop and low latency desktop options, and in both of them my desktop seemed overloaded. even mouse movement was chopped. I usually have theses apps running: - azureus - tvtime - konqueror - mozilla-firefox - konsole and in 2.6.14 it didn't happen. is it just me, or should I try 2.6.15-r1 instead? what should I check in order to verify what's going on in my machine? I appreciate any help. thanks in advance. claudio. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
[gentoo-user] kernel 2.6.15-gentoo-r7 and dhcpcd
Since I switched to kernel 2.6.15-gentoo-r7 (from r5), with an identical .config file, dhcpcd doesn't stay alive as a daemon: - it starts okay at boot time and eth1 gets its address from IAF, then it dies - when the lease time's over, I don't have internet access anymore until I rebbot. What gives ? Anyone got the same problem ? Thanks for the help, -- ~adj~ -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
