Hello,

it requires a little modification,

CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG should not be a condition to create autogroup in structure
task_group

remove 
    && defined(CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG)
in the following conditional:

Thanks Jordi, but my last attempted build, using only the last 2 patches 
that Mike posted on a fresh unpack of 2.6.36, couldn't get past stage 2 of 
the modules build, it kept squawking about all the IR control stuff that is 
not even configured to be built.

I wonder how long it will take to get work this into mainline?

No idea what's going on with that.  Maybe you should wait until I get
the /proc display/tweak interface cobbled together and post a checked

I have come to that conclusion of too.  But because I am interested in an 
improvement in this 'interactivity' of the desktop, I was willing to give 
even the WIP a try.  If what I report helps you, then my testing effort is 
not wasted.  The more eyes and different hdwe theory. ;-)

the autogroup-sched patch works well, right now writing this message from a 
computer that runs that kernel.

this patch is much simpler than CK2, so I suppose that the implementation 
should be more easy,
I am trying both and observe, from my user's point of view, that they give a 
similar result.

Gene, if that may help to do your own kernel implementation, the Debian kernel 
sources I've used are available at:
http://livenet.selfip.com/ftp/debian/linux-2.6/

2.6.36 + CK2, in the subdirectory
   linux-2.6.36-0.jpp.10-lnet/
2.6.36 + autogroup_sched, in the subdirectory
   linux-2.6.36-0.jpp.11-lnet/

HI...

I have compile a kernel 2.6.36 with autogroup but I don't see
any /proc/sys/kernel/sched_autogroup_enabled

Also, I tried with noautogroup and autogroup on kernel line boot, but it
doesn't work...

Maybe I do samething wrong...

Yeah, thanks.  It was initially a debug only thing, but evolution
changed that.
