Subject: Re: [PATCH] 2.6, 2.4, Nforce2, Experimental idle halt workaround instead of apic ack delay.
Date: Fri, 13 Feb 2004 12:17:34 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <402CB24E.3070105@gmx.de> (raw)

Hi,

I am just testing this patch with latest 2.6.3-rc2-mm1. It works in that 
sense, that my machine doesn't lock up of APIC issue. (If it locks up - 
hasn't done yet - then because of something else, I am currently 
discssing it in another thread...)

But it doesn't work in the sense of cooling my machine down. Though 
athcool reports disconnect is activated it behaves like it is not, ie, 
turning disconnect off makes no difference in temperatures. Your old 
tack patch in conjunction with 2.6.2-rc1 (linus) works like a charm, ie 
no lock-ups and less temp.

Any idea? I haven't taken out the apic_tack line, but I have added the 
idle=... line. Should that be a problem? I mean the apic_tack should 
safely be ignored, isn't it? Since I swap kernels quite often, I am too 
lazy to edit the boot line every time...

Prakash
