Re: Changing CPU Speed while running Linux
Hi, I have a brand new Dell Inspiron 8000, laptop. It can run in 700 MHz or 850 MHz. The manual says that the machine/BIOS switches speed dependent on CPU load. I have not installed Linux yet, but it works with Win2000. It is also possible to force the BIOS to one speed if the OS don't like speed changes. Would Linux accept sudden changes of CPU clock rate or is it only the the OS initiate the change of speed it is accepted? I agree with you that it should be a generic thing. I guess that more and more laptops will get dual-speed CPUs. _\\|//_ (-0-0-) /---ooO-(_)-Ooo--\ | Magnus SandbergEmail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | Network Engineer, BlueLabs AB http://www.bluelabs.se/ | | Phone: +46-8-470 2155 FAX: +46-8-470 2199 | \/ || || ooO Ooo - On 13th of June 2001 Arjan van de Ven wrote; - Geggus wrote: > > Hi there, > > on my Elan410 based System it is very easy to change the CPU clock speed > by means od two outb commands. > > I was wondering, if it does some harm to the Kernel if the CPU is > reprogrammed using a different CPU clock speed, while the system is up and > running.

Re: Problem with kernel 2.2.19 Ultra-DMA and SMP, once more
Hi, I guess there are no simple answers... Below I have 3 different answers to my previous questions. As they relate to the same problem,I descided to put them togheter in this mail. Mark Hahn don't realy seams to agree with Andre about if noapic is crippling the system or not. Alan Cox says that VIA and SMP are not supported for the moment by 2.2. What does that mean? Can I use it at all or do I risk to get hardware damage of my motherboard or just an unstable system? Shane Wegner seams to have some sort of work-around by mixing new and old versions of IDE-patch. >From all this I have a new three-stage question; Is it just luck that Shane got it working?

I added Andre Hidrick's IDE-patch to get Ultra-DMA for my IDE disk. That kernel has worked for a month. Yesterday I decided to activate SMP to really use both of the CPUs in the system. That didn't work. The system hangs during boot phase, no oops or other error messages, just a silent stop. First of all I have a question, should SMP work with Hidrick's IDE-patch? If so, what could be wrong? For the moment I don't have to much information to give to you, but I can get what ever you want when I get back home from work. I compiled the none-SMP kernel at 22nd of April, which means that the IDE-patch must be older than that. I run a Debian 2.2 (Potato) system. The motherboard is a Micro Star 694D-Pro with two PIII-850 CPUs, 256 MB RAM, etc. The only information I have for the moment is a "dmesg" output from my non-SMP functional kernel and two .config from /usr/src/linux/ one from the functional none-SMP and the other for the problematic SMP-version. Of cause the dmesg outputs differ depending on the kernel type but I have inserted a pointer that show where the SMP-kernel friezes.

I hope that the attachment show the correct information, it was written in W*rd so some lower case chars can have been converted into upper case... I also checked the IDE-patch and the filename was kernel-patch-2.2.19-ide_20010325-1.tar.gz. Could a newer IDE-patch handle SMP better than this one?

Problem with kernel 2.2.19 Ultra-DMA and SMP, once more
Hi once more... I'm sorry for the layout of this mail. It is written in a web mail system... The attachements are in ASCII format even if the web-mail make it base-64 Now I have compiled a vanilla 2.2.19 kernel and have SMP working, without Ultra-DMA. I used the functional kernel config from 2.2.19-ide and just activated SMP. From that I have 3 very simular kernel configurations: 2.2.19 with Hidrick's IDE-patch, no SMP: working 2.2.19 without IDE-patch, with SMP: working 2.2.19 with IDE-patch and SMP: not booting With all the information I hope that someone can help me with the IDE-and-SMP problem. _\\|//_ (-0-0-) /---ooO-(_)-Ooo--\ | Magnus SandbergEmail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | Network Engineer, Bluelabs http://www.bluelabs.se/ | | Phone: +46-8-470 2155(FAX: +46-8-470 2199)GSM: +46-708-225 805 | \/ || || ooO Ooo kernel-2.2.19_1st-smp-no_cleanup.config boot-log-2.2.19-smp-no_ide.txt
