Kernel testing request 2.6.31

E-Mail PDF

Another testing request. Kernel 2.6.31 is planned to be stabled soon on all architectures. Hereby I now ask users on stable x86 systems to upgrade to gentoo-sources 2.6.31-r6 or vanilla-sources 2.6.31.6 and report back to me in all cases (failure or success). The other arches appreciate tests, too, but I can't speak for them. Thanks in advance.

Since the upgrade to sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-2.6.31-r3 I had problems with net-wireless/iwl4965-ucode-228.61.2.24
The wireless starts to disbehave after a couple of sleep/resume cycles. But since I cannot reproduce it regularly, I decided that I was too busy to debug it. Going back to 228.57.2.23 solved the problem for me. So you might watch out for other users complaining about wireless problems on intel hardware.

gentoo-sources-2.6.31-r6 failed to install the sources onto one "machine". I have a server that contains the net boot files for another machine. I build everything for the netboot machine by chrooting into the netboot folders to compile on the server as it is faster.
The server extracted it fine but for some reason the netboot environment gets stuck on Applying 4400_alpha-sysctl-ua c.patch (-p0+) ... and just sits there forever.I started the extraction last night before going to bed and thats what I saw on the screen, and it was still there 8 hours later when I looked again.

Ok, it took like 10 attempts this morning but it finally went past that point. There was never any error message, it just would say applying but never progress.

It can be that the code has been fixed by kernel maintainers without a revbump.

net-dialup/fcpci is marked unstable but it's been working here on 2.6.30 with no problems. It fails to emerge on gentoo-sources-2.6.31-r6:

Looking at the code more carefully it seems that the definition of atomic_xchg has changed in 2.6.31, so presumably it would be appropriate to file a bug on net-dialup/fcpci. But this does stop me from testing 2.6.31

As it is unstable, it will not hold up 2.6.31 stabilisation, but you should file a bug nonetheless.

Hi,
Updated successfully on Dell D630 (C2D T8100, iwl3945, Nvidia Quadro NVS 135M, XFS, bluetooth).
The only problem was kvm-kmod-88-r1 witch doesn't compile. But this is a known bug and in-kernel modules work just fine.

Having problems with gentoo-sources-2.6.31-r6 on Dell D600. The left mouse button is not working as it should - you have to click it several times for it to do anything. Using the same config as from previous 2.6.30-r8, which works fine.

Upgraded from gentoo-sources-2.6.30-r8 to gentoo-sources-2.6.31-r6 today on a MacBook.

All hardware (isight, lid-induced sleep, audio, wifi, keyboard hotkeys) are working.

I chose mostly default values with make oldconfig.

Results seem stable as far as I can tell.
