Just a quick FYI that after the 11.0 branch announcement, the HEAD kernel has been rebased to 2.6.26-rc5-git5. Updates will be ongoing.
I tried booting it on my x86-64 machine and it seemed to boot successfully - but then I saw "bootsplash turned off" (not exact message) and the system was frozen completely.
Has anybody had better success with the kernel? I can attach on monday a serial console if needed,
I have 2.6.26-rc6-git1 booted on an x86_64 node, but it's not a desktop.
Ok, tested again, here're the results: I tested the x86-64 2.6.26-rc6-git1-HEAD_20080613171419-default kernel on my Lenovo x61s laptop and noticed: * This time I started with splash=off and could boot * wlan (iwl3945) does not find my network at all - and instead finds network names that do not exist. Seems there's something wrong with getting the network names. * hda intel does not work (phonon tells me it's broken and uses pcspeaker instead), dmesg shows: hda_intel: probe_mask set to 0x1 for device 17aa:20ac PCI: Setting latency timer of device 0000:00:1b.0 to 64 input: PC Speaker as /devices/platform/pcspkr/input/input8 * dmesg tells me: Driver 'sd' needs updating - please use bus_type methods So, not usable yet for me, I'm back at the 11.0 GA kernel Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger, Director Platform / openSUSE, aj@suse.de SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126
