[opensuse-factory] Rooting for AMD underdog - how about 4.13 AMD stuff e.g. turbostat, cpupower and proc/cpuinfo changes
Hi there, I prefer AMD underdog over monopolists any day and I read interesting stuff about new amd support on the 4.13 kernel, especially turbostat , changes made to /proc/cpuinfo not reflecting current MHz any more, cpupower and maybe lot of other neat stuff. Any chance for backport to 42.3 kernel and so on? Thanks lots. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

What about adding a kernel stable repository? You will automatically get 4.13 when it is "stable" for Leap 42.3. In for example: https://software.opensuse.org/package/kernel-default su Peter -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

The easiest way is zypper ar http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Kernel:/stable/standard/ kernel-stable The even more adventurous might want to try zypper ar http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Kernel:/HEAD/standard/ kernel-head (v4.13-rc4 at the moment). Note: before enabling any of these, I recommend to enable multiversion for kernel packages and either disable pruning of old kernels or set it up in a way that preserves at least one kernel from 42.3 repository which is known to work.

Which repository for the latest stable mesa library should go with that? cu Peter -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
Yeah kernel repos thanks for hinting, I almost forgot about them. But still, there is a new interesting thermal or sensors stuff for amd zen appearing on lkml/kernel.org, and I am always interested in AMD supporting stuff using their hardware. http://phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=AMD-Zen-k10temp-Patch https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/9/6/684 http://lkml.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1709.0/01595.html http://lkml.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1709.0/index.html#01595 TIA. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
