[dt9394]

i try to do the same stress test on my test machine running windows 7(64bit) ,i7, 4gb ram. running 64 compile job , run HD and 4 tab firefox. it just go boom... BSOD

[BeamingSplendor]

@dt9394 lulz thats the Windows Kernel for ya

[mochouinard]

I got this running on ubuntu 10.10 (Installed the 11.04 kernel (3 deb file) and rebooted. Video driver got automaticly relinked to the kernel. Improvement is AMAZING ! Especially flash, I can watch 1080p video in full screen being very smooth on youtube now... It used to be bairly possible in flash at 720p. Thanks for this patch

[aelia92]

That amount of CPU cores you've got is just silly.

[maninalift]

@aelia92 what does he even need a scheduler for with 12 cores?

[Alexandermeister]

Can you anyone direct me to a page on how to actually apply this patch? I've never patched a kernel before.

[TheHeadhunter00]

combine this with bfs and increase timer frequency to 1500 hz and boom there, you got something faster than light speed. not rely, but you understand what i mean.

[jbmaru]

Thanks for the reply. I was worrying indeed because kernel updates made Ubuntu 10.10 incompatible with those, until their 16/11 update. But this one's just processor-related, so that's great.

[jbmaru]

Is it compatible with nVidia legacy drivers? (My laptop has a Geforce4 440 Go and a P4 1.8)

[xasdrubalex]

@jbmaru it has nothing to do with graphic drivers, so don't worry about.

[Stargatto]

I'm just compiling the patched kernel... It's seems a fake...

[TheHeadhunter00]

@Stargatto

not really. it only makes a difference if you have multi core processor or have a cpu supporting hyperthreading. basically, the more the hyperthreading support and cores, the faster this patch will be.

[nahplop]

Buy a tripod dude.

Or a new pair of hands.

[UrbanLamer]

That was beautiful!!!

[sephirothsoul999]

To all interested,

There is an article on webupd8.org with a few changes you can make to your system which parallel what the new patch will do. The page is called "alternative to 200 line patch" - patches are available i think, but you may prefer to wait until 2.6.38 or a kernel with the patch built specifically for your distro is released, or if you'd prefer to compile a patched kernel yourself :)

[Rudde47]

When and how to get this update? My old crappy laptop have some problems with 1080p :P

[lstop1day9243]

There is no parallel. I thought I was cool with -j7 and still being able to do things, but god, this is amazing!

[zx1986]

how to ??????????????

[sychedelix]

nice patch :D

[leder678]

I don't like this, stupid youtube like/dislike...

I love it <3

[CHARLY977]

bravo!

[soyanede]

I want my autogroup patch, NOW !!!! :'( :'(

[gerrywastaken]

great vid post

[madjunir]

awesome demo guys , am so excited!

you should also try this on a netbook with 1080p, flash videos, games, etc, while recording with recordmydesktop

lets see if on low end hardware, theirs some improvement too!

[sdemon121]

Убунтоебы, такие убунтоебы.. actually, someone tested this against .36 or .35 kernels?

[JankinsAtSAT]

This is so awesome. I cannot wait to test this magic patch. Great great job.

[mrjeyc]

going to patch my kernel right now!

[deurkl]

Very very very good! I want to test it!

[pitnails]

круто-круто!

[ydf333333]

Great！！！

[MisterYerty]

cool! Thanks!

[bcoco85]

when will be this patch into the stable kernels?

[CurtHowland]

@bcoco85 2.6.38. .37 is just closed, so allowing a month or two for putting .37 to test, then the merge window for .38, give it 4 months for safe expectations.

[bcoco85]

@CurtHowland thanks!

[qeuchniot]

@bcoco85 Kernel 2.6.38 likely because the previous one is feature-frozen.

[MrRaptor26]

Зачотно, хотя разработчики, например убунты, думаю включат этот патч в свой продукт к 11.10

[cybernextgen]

@MrRaptor26 Ох) Будем надеяться)

[ShadowwwLFS]

@MrRaptor26 Убунта же говно, не?

[Ra321123]

@ShadowwwLFS Не



[ShadowwwLFS]

@Ra321123 Пиздишь, инфа 100%. Убунта всегда была говном, а её пользователи - говноеды :)

[Ra321123]

@ShadowwwLFS Вы пишите бред, инфа 100%.

[ShadowwwLFS]

@Ra321123 Мнение красноглазика не считается.

[Keruaran]

Nice!

[anonymousloud]

Gelivable

[noilkrad]

это просто праздник какой-то! ждем во всех дистрибутивах! МАСТ ХЭВ!

[docomozi]

Охуительно

[cnlvu]

Still I believe, change the X to some more graphic intensive architecture like Wayland will remove even the minor glitch when moving window around

anyway, great scheduler improver...

[realwhz]

Great!

[TualatriX]

So Gelivable!

[AlonsoCN32]

Totalmente sorprendente! =O

mas le vale a microsoft que empiece a tener miedo si Linux sigue avanzando a este ritmo, sencillamente brutal. O_O

[designernasser]

awesomeness

[panzerargentina]

Linux es el futuro! OPEN SOURCE future!

[dalcher]

wow.. compared to  watch?v=uk70SeGA7pg that's awesome....

[blubisu]

I don't know what to say. That was amazing !!!

[sg96951]

[inphrased]

This is so hot, I'll show it to my girlfiend

[jortecus1]

@inphrased i was getting the orgasm

[vtvitus]

[webnull]

Awesome, im waiting for kernel where the patch is included..

[Sdarin]

O_O Awesome!

[JairoSer]

WOW

[un2mensch]

That's drastic!

[lumaix]

[Feexer007]

Looks really interesting! I hope #12309 will be fixed somehow later...
