Hi there!
Well, that masterpeiece of Software, the 2.5.7x series is now running on
all computers I got my hands on (all i386 and physically accessable, the
others will be treated later) :)
I must say, it runs great, especially on servers that thing does not
crash more often than 2.4.x. Well indeed I saw an Oops on my Server with
2.4.x which I did not debug, I put 2.5.72-mm2 onto it :)
These Kernels (2.5.7x-mmx) did not give an Oops too me and died if
running (lvm1 -> lvm2 and such things). Simultaniously switching to
devfs was no Problem...
I got some freezes with 2.5.70-mm9 and 2.5.71-mmx which seem to have
disappeared, lets see...
However, there is only one Problem left for me, before this one can be
called 2.6.0: The keys on my PS/2 IBM Keyboard are bouncing very often!
I switched from an USB Logitech Keyboard back to my old school, clicking
PC-102 IBM Keyboard ATM and the Key bouncing was back immmediatly :(
Over ssh connections it is even more extreme, I don't know why.
Are there any approaches to debug or whatsoever that thing? I saw many
changes to the input layer on this mailing list since 2.5.70 so I gave
this one Kernel here another chance :) (see signature). I just wanted to
say, the Problem hasn't gone yet, not more, and keep on hacking this
great mastepiece of Kernel :-)
Regards, Konsti

Please see if it is repeatable without the nVidia driver loaded.

Yes, there is no way around that, actually running X with nv driver, and
its hard to use only one Monitor instead of them both :(
But, lets see what is happening without this nvidia.ko module...

PS.: Sorry Andrew, again I typed r instead of L so you got an personal

Could you further explain what you mean by key "bouncing"?
Do you mean the keyboard repeat rate is too fast? If so, could you let
me know more details about the system? Also could you try booting w/
"clock=pit" and let me know if the problem persists?
thanks

Well, it should become a correct translation of german "prellen" (Wie
geht das in Englisch?).

No, that would be no Problem. Often, if I browse in mutt and press Arrow
Keys, it is autorepeated suddenly but I only pressed the Key shortly!
The Kernel does not realize it is released since ages. Pressing again
the kernel stops repeating. That happens with all keys and when with
arrow or PageUp/Down keys in slrn it drives me mad!

This happens with 2 PS/2 Keyboards plugged into a SIS7xx and an intel
845PE Board. Using USB Keyboards works like a charme...

Yes, curious what that means, will know more this evening :)
Happy hacking!

I have seen this problem ever since I started using 2.5 on my laptop. I can
easily recreate it by pressing two keys at the same time, it seems that then
something gets screwed up and he repeats one of the two keys 20-30 times when
it stops.
I'll test with that clock=pit option later, when I have the chance to reboot.

I tested it now and with pit the IO-APIC is not getting alog with it at
boot time, is it worth to write down the error message?
It resultet in something like "clock not usable" or something. Hell
wait, I can capture it at serial console :-)

It might be that you have a similar problem as Joern Engel:
