compiling each modules seems to fix the problem yet bringing an interesting 
outcome seems coldplug loads them differently and things work i also got 
ndiswrapper working to:) notice how ehci gets hub 3  now it was loaded last 
to when built in kernel it was loaded first my usb hd work on 3 ports and 
when pluged into the last port does not work at all error posted below seems 
to be a buggy chipset 

dmesg  output usb part

now got to thinking plug in a usb 1.1 device only and get this :) seems to 
work with usb 1.1 only which dont bother me at all 

usb 1-1: new low speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 6
input: USB HID v1.00 Joystick [WiseGroup.,Ltd MP- USB Joypad] on

testing usb 1.1 on a fast port works fine hands off to low speed driver like
its suppose to seems odd that this works now and why dont it work built into 
the kernel ,

 Don't use both ohci-hcd and ehci-hcd.  You only need ehci-hcd.

  system time = the clock seems to become out of sync very fast i would
  like to

 Take a look at /usr/src/linux/Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt, the
 clock= setting.  You are currently using pmtmr (an ACPI feature) for
 time, and you probably want pic until you get the ACPI issues
 resolved.

[gentoo-user] gateway mx7515 laptop usb help

2005-12-02 Thread Noah J Norris
ok im installing gentoo on a gateway laptop mx7515

ok im gona start with what works and how i started my install
i started install off of ubunto linux live cd (supported unboard net-work 
card )im using no highmem support in 32bit build 

net =after had gentoo installed i downloaded the network driver to patch 
kernel from vendor so ehternet will work  lspci of network card

:02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88E8036 Fast 
Ethernet Controller (rev 10)

video = use newest atidriver from www.ati.com install and compile manualy may 
have to setup links for fglrx module so modprobe sees it enable agp support 
so it works ( note laptop is pcie but driver dont build correct without agp ) 
i started my ati mess with trying to use emerge ati-drivers this will hard 
lock system with current drivers inorder to get video do not compile agp 
support i was only  able to get 2d support (agp support with stable drivers 
hard lock system )  note you can not use a gui login manager aswell it will 
hard lock system whrn you exit to log in as another user soloution to this is 
to use startx only . (note no frame buffer vesa or redaon is built in 
kernel )  (please get nvdia based video card they work much bettter )

sound= works with ati-ixp driver must mute external amp switch to get sound 
power management= the cpu power control works fine suspend  

moving now to things that dont work or do yet dont .

usb = usb 1.1 works but usb2 does not appear to work i really need help with 
this problem . ok according to everything usb2.0 looks good and should work  
at the bottomof this email  is lspci dmesg and dmesg when hooking up a usb2 
device and output . notice in the dmesg it says that there is 8 ports found 
on usb2.0 hub and 4 port on usb 1.1 this laptop only has 4 usb ports

wireless = used ndiswrapper emerge ndiswrapper fails download and compile and 
install from source works but complains that i should enable 16k stack kernel 
i pulled the drivers from the first cd that you make in gateways crappy 
backup program i got to the point that it sees the hardware loads and the 
light lights up once changing the mode to ad-hoc i can see my wireless ap i 
can sett the essid to the correct name but cant connect . this is something i 
would like to resolve but usb is more important. this may also have something 
todo with acpi not working the correct way unknown i dont know to much about 
acpi to tell 

acpi = acpi seems to work but computer has a MSFT acpi on it i have found a 
page that recomends to fix it and it may help with some problems using intels 
acpi compilier spitsout some errors and warings if someone would like to help 
me fix this i would be willing to provide any information . i dont really 
know how to make the changes to patch my acpi but if someone would help i 
would give them any information the laptop procides 

system time = the clock seems to become out of sync very fast i would like to 
resolve this problem to with apic enabled the clocks supper fast  ie screen 
saver set for 40 mins  came on in 5 mins etc

it seems this laptop uses ati's chipset for board related things and it seems 
to be newly supported so maybe things will imporve

system stats
amd64 4000+ (32bit mode for now )
1gig memory (not using highmem)
100 gb hard drive
dvdrw cdrw drive
wireless (ndiswrapper only  not working)
ethernet working with source from syskonects website
usb only 1.1 usb2 ?
media card slots = unknown
power management = unknown cpu throtaling works (k8 )
video works with bugs ati x600 pcie  1080x800 screen 
sound works with mute /unmute of external amp channel
