-mm release schedule?

2007-03-01 Thread Ryan Hope

I didn't really know of a better place to ask this question, bus is
there any rhyme or reason to when -mm kernels are released? Is there a
-git repo that I can get work in progress for -mm?

ACPI: EC: Handler for query 0x80 is not found!

2007-07-10 Thread Ryan Hope

Ever since 2.6.22-rc6-mm1 I have been seeing these messages in dmesg:

ACPI: EC: Handler for query 0x80 is not found!
ACPI: EC: Handler for query 0x81 is not found!

This did not happen in 2.6.22-rc4-mm1. Does anyone have any clue what
this is about?

I noticed that this message goes away if I reboot my computer... So a
fresh boot it errors, on reboot it does not error.

Re: Pluggable Schedulers (was: [ANNOUNCE] RSDL completely fair starvation free interactive cpu scheduler)

2007-03-09 Thread Ryan Hope

from what I understood, there is a performance loss in plugsched
schedulers because they have to share code

even if pluggable schedulers is not a viable option, being able to
choose which one was built into the kernel would be easy (only takes a
few ifdefs), i too think competition would be good

Right.

How diplomatic.

Sure, but I think, even from a technical point of view, competition is a good
thing to have.  Pluggable schedulers give us this kind of competition, that
forces each scheduler to refine or become obsolete.  Think evolution.

Point taken.

What about PlugSched?


Thanks!

pciehp: Cannot get control of hotplug hardware

2007-03-10 Thread Ryan Hope

Ever since I started playing with suspend I started turning on PCI Hot
Plug support since then I have been seeing messages like whats
below from dmesg I'm not exactly sure how this actually impacts me
if it does at all. I just thought it didn't look exactly right so I
wanted to inquire about it. Does anyone know what is going on here?
