. Added the adaptec SCSI driver update from Justin. There's some disagreement over whether the changes in this patch are appropriate, but we may as well get some external testing underway.

. Included an update from the ieee1394 team. Anyone who was having firewire problems, please retest.

. A couple of patches here should fix the CDROM-related problems which some people saw in 2.6.0-mm1.

How to patch a mm1 kernel?

Sorry, for asking this potentially silly question, but how do I patch my 2.6.0-mm1 to mm2? It looks like mm2 is not an incremental patchset compared to mm1. Is there a way of applying only the differences since mm1 without having to "Assume -R / Apply [n]" all the time? ;-)

Thanks

have both patches ready...

have both patches ready...

cd linux-2.6.0-mm1
bzcat ../2.6.0-mm1.bz2 |patch -Rp1
bzcat ../2.6.0-mm2.bz2 |patch -p1
cd ..
mv linux-2.6.0-mm1 linux-2.6.0-mm2

should do it... since the patches are not incremental, you need to remove the previous mm patch (patch -R) before you apply the new one.

I compiled the 2.6.0-mm2 using gcc3.2.
module-init-utils is the newest version, mkinitrd is 3.5.14
Really don't know what happens. Anybody helps out? thanx.

CPU runs at 100% all the time

Hardware: nForce2(M7NCD Pro), Athlon 2500+, 1024Mb, two Maxtor ATA/133 80GB, promise Ultra 133TX2.

Configured ACPI, SW RAID 0, 1 using reiserfs.

Compiled on Fedora Core 1.
gcc version 3.3.2 20031022 (Red Hat Linux 3.3.2-1)
module-init-tools 3.0-pre5
mkinitrd: version 3.5.14

Problem: everyting look good except that
        the CPU is running at full speed all the time.
    Temperature soared to 115F stable within 75F temperature room.
    Looks like having run for hours compressing a vedio file.
        hard disk performance lower than 2.4 kernel by hdparm
    testing, like 3/5~4/5
