Linux kernel patch set 2.4.19pre8-jp11
This is the eleventh release of the -jp kernel patch set.
Status: 10 May 2002 21:30 CEST
Changes from jp10 to jp11
Many updates. New versions: rmap13a, ALSA 0.9.0rc1, preempt 2.4.19pre8, RAID MD for 2.4.19pre7, XFS CVS of 4 May 2002, Crypto patch 2.4.18-2, grsecurity 1.9.5pre3. New patches: Robert Love's additional preemption patches (including migration-thread and remove-wakeup-sync), IDE CD DMA, mini lowlatency (from jam kernel patch set), ACPI 20020503, ACPI PCIIRQ 17, TUX 2 final A3, and some minor addons and fixups. khttpd has been removed in preference of TUX. OSS sound driver has been removed in preference of ALSA OSS API emulation layer. System shutdown hang fixed.
Known Issues
With ACPI enabled and APM disabled, Dell Inspiron 8100 power cable can't be pulled off, system will immediately power off. There are obviously some ACPI flaws, but no real bugs. See http://acpi.sf.net The miroSound PCM20 radio audio driver depends on OSS sound include file and is no longer compileable.
What is it?
The -jp kernels are development kernels for testing purpose only. They will appear regularly two or three times a month. Their purpose is to provide a service for developers who can't keep up to date with the latest kernel and patch versions, but want to test new features and evaluate enhancements that are not to be expected for inclusion into the mainstream 2.4 kernel.
Download
The patch set is provided as a single archive where you will find all patches as separate .bz2 packed files. Please take care if you split the set and try to use parts of it. The recommended way is downloading the set, unpacking the archive, and apply the patches with the addpatches shell script.

Installation
The addpatches shell script is very useful to apply the patch set. Here are the basic commands how to build a new kernel with -jp patches:
Download 2.4.18 Linux kernel sources Unpack into /usr/src/linux Download -jp patch set Unpack into your patchdir cd patchdir sh addpatches cd /usr/src/linux make menuconfig make dep clean bzImage modules su make modules_install cp System.map /boot/System.map-2.4.1X-preX-jpX cp arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot/vmlinuz.2.4.1X-preX-jpX edit /etc/lilo.conf lilo reboot ... and take a deep breath! You are running a jp kernel now!
Contact
You feel happy with a jp kernel? Just let me know if my work is good for you.
Feel free to contact me, send e-mail to joerg@infolinux.de I try to help as much as I can. It's fun to hack the Linux kernel! If you are lucky, you can find me hanging out at IRC: #kernelnewbies at irc.openprojects.net Credits to all the fine people out there.
You have successfully booted a -jp kernel? You want to know if your system can run a -jp kernel? If you like to send your 'dmesg' output of successful booting into a -jp kernel, please let me know about your system. Please attach the system name, your kernel '.config' and other valuable information in your mail. Also, I like to know if certain hardware or .config's don't work, or when build errors occur. I will add this information on my web page.
You are missing a patch? Patches will be added by request. Please be patient, some patches must be carefully tested.
