Hi Andrew,
-mm4 won't mount my ext3 root device whereas -mm3 will. Presumably this is
some byproduct of the dev_t patches.
VFS: Cannot open root device "302" or hda2.
Please append correct "root=" boot option.
Kernel Panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on hda2.
One possible explanation is that I have devfs compiled into my kernel. I do
not, however, have it automatically mounting on boot. It overlays /dev (which
is populated with original style device nodes) after INIT has loaded.
Perhaps there is some other procedure I must complete before I can use 32bit
dev_t?

I don't think this has to do with ext3, since my root xfs partition can't be
mounted either.

same over here, except replace hda2 with sda3 and (302 with 803 of couse).

I disabled mount at root and created some device nodes, but it still doesn't
work, befor that I had pure devfs. Reading the config help for devfs says
it's obsoleted, and stripped down to a "bare minimum to not break anyting".
Does that "bare minimum" include hard disks?

Do you use devfsd ?
I had to specify root like this :
root=/dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part5 then it worked just fine.

Changing it as per your suggestion makes no difference. I still cannot boot,
and the error is identical.
Disregard my last email.

Amazingly idiotic typo. And yes, it gets hit only if devfs is configured.

No. As I said, I mount /dev with mount -t devfs devfs /dev in a sysinit
bootscript. Whether it's in the kernel or not shouldn't make any difference.
Maybe I just need to reissue LILO after booting the 32bit dev_t kernel?

I'll try that, thanks. But I have this in lilo.conf:
boot=/dev/discs/disc0/disc
root=/dev/discs/disc0/part2
/dev/discs is indeed a symlink, but it should be resolved when LILO is
installed, i.e., prior to the reboot. Why has this behaviour changed?
Cheers,
Alistair.

Thanks for that. It's working fine now.

Seems Andrew merged a different version of the options patch than the
one that was posted to the list. I can make a fixup tonight.
Also, from looking at the test5-mm4 patch, I think that match_number()
from lib/parser.c is ignoring the base argument and using a hardcoded
value of zero for the simple_strtol() call. This should result in
match_octal() and match_hex() being broken (well, being the same as
match_int).

You mean it breaks the XFree driver? Is it just a matter of editing
XF86Config to tell it the new protocl name?
Either way, it looks like a change which should be reverted?

It breaks the event device auto detection, which works by parsing
/proc/bus/input/devices. The protocol name is hard coded so you can't
just change the XF86Config file.
> Either way, it looks like a change which should be reverted?
I think the new protocol name is better, so why not just fix the X
driver instead. Here is a fixed version:

Ouch? This is just an information string, it is not supposed to be used
anywhere except printks etc ... I really HOPE nobody is parsing these
strings.
Before the patch, the input_dev.name string said
"Synaptics Synaptics Pad", which kind of didn't make much sense.
Since it's a concatenation of protocol, vendor and device names, it
now says
"SynPS/2 Synaptics Pad", which sounds a bit better.
> Either way, it looks like a change which should be reverted?
If it breaks anything, that needs to be fixed in what it broke, because
nothing should depend on this. If it does, then that's a big bug.

I'd suggest the driver either checks the BUS/VENDOR/DEVICE ids or the
bitfields for the pad, not the name. Names are unreliable ...

This should be "unsigned long long", not u64. That is what "%L" means,
after all.

Right. I was under an impression they're the same.
I assume you don't want (me to post) a corrected patch, do you?

OK, this is now implemented in version 0.11.5, which I just uploaded
to my web site. This version also adds support for the new events
ABS_TOOL_WIDTH, BTN_TOOL_FINGER, BTN_TOOL_DOUBLETAP and
BTN_TOOL_TRIPLETAP.
