^^ Chef, Kirkwood??? Never seen it before, where is that from? :)

[pidsley]

^ Looks like a pogoplug kernel from here: http://forum.doozan.com/list.php?2

[simgin]

^ Thank you Pids :) Never seen or heard of that forum before, bookmarked now.

^^ that is correct... may be the best $7 I ever spent.

Back on trunk:

Linux debian 4.2.0-trunk-686-pae #1 SMP Debian 4.2-1~exp1 (2015-08-31) i686 GNU/Linux

Lately all the new shiny kernels are making problems. Let's see what will happen with the newest. Gekko already has a newer kernel.

[GekkoP]

^ Oh yes, I'm on this right now:

Linux macro 4.2.1-towo.1-siduction-amd64 #1 SMP PREEMPT siduction 4.2-3 (2015-09-22) x86_64 GNU/Linux

[pidsley]

I built a 4.2 kernel for CRUX, and it segfaulted at boot. I only use LTS kernels now.

[ivanovnegro]

^ Not a bad idea at all. Should do the same. I have only ancient hardware, no need for shiny kernels.

Obviously I changed kernels again and am finally happy.

Code: Select all

Linux debian 4.2-3.dmz.1-liquorix-686 #1 ZEN SMP PREEMPT Debian 4.2-6 (2015-10-03) i686 GNU/Linux

I would have never thought using liquorix for longer than a day. :) At the moment it runs better than the towo kernels and of course vanilla Debian.

[dkeg]

Tell me more. Why? What laptop?

[ivanovnegro]

It is on my old HP laptop, still my main laptop. It is nothing special regarding the kernel only that since version 4.0 I had problems with all default Debian kernels like overheating, fans not working or even lock ups. I then tried towo's kernels again but my machine just does not like them, it overheats instantly because somehow the fan is not spinning the way it should.
I could perfectly go with some older Debian kernels, they worked great but I was still trying to use shiny new stuff regardless and liquorix works. It just works. Nothing special. It is about function not performance.

[dkeg]

^cool, thanks! My fan seems to be on unnecessarily on the Thinkpad. I'm trying towo kernel now, seems a bit better. But I'm only 30 or so minutes into a fresh boot up. May give the liquorix a shot.
