hi

the 45_hpet_patches file is for 2.6.22-rc kernels, as there is no
timekeeping.c in the 2.6.21 series. the 43_force_hpet_enable patch can
be applied to a 2.6.21 kernel, but it caused the suspend-resume
failures.

i suggest you to grab a .22-rc vanilla kernel and apply the powertop
patches against it.

if you want some of the gentoo-sources patches (e.g. fbsplash), you
can grab them from any portage distfile mirror.


yours,
adam

Hi everyone,

i just tried to apply the force hpet patch to the latest gentoo kernel
(which is linux-2.6.21-gentoo-r2). It fails here:

patching file kernel/time/tick-broadcast.c
patching file kernel/time/tick-common.c
can't find file to patch at input line 519
Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option?

Is the patch from powertop.org against the -mm kernel? The link on the
powertop website refers to:

http://linuxpowertop.org/patches/hpet_patches_45.patch

Is there a version for the 2.6.21 kernel available?
