Mailing list madness

22:54, 6 November 2008 (UTC)

So I created a mailing list for the Cobalt stuff over at GoogleGroups. Feel free to join.

2.6.27 has a patch

10:26, 1 November 2008 (UTC)

Very few things changed from 2.6.26.5 to 2.6.27 (thankfully). The highlight was that COBALT_MIPS_LCD is no longer required, so I was able to strip all of the patch stuff for it out. Eventually I'd like to get the patch down to a real minimum, but that will undoubtedly take time, and a lot of it.

New Cobalt kernel patch for 2.6.26.5

11:43, 1 October 2008 (UTC)

I haven't had a chance to try this patch out yet as it's 4:41am localtime, but it compiles, and everything looks right. I'm going to test it this evening when I get to work (this is where I keep all my RaQs that I test with). In the mean time, if people want to try it, I'd very much appreciate it.

Update (11:23, 2 October 2008 (UTC)): I noted the ruler driver is currently broken, and as it turns out, it's actually used for something. The RaQ XTR uses the ruler driver for the four hotswap bays, and sadly it will not boot without the driver. I'll be looking in to this in the next couple of days.

I've been putting it off...

11:25, 24 September 2008 (UTC)

I've been putting it off because I've been so busy with other things (work, life, car (grrrrr)), but my goal in the next few days is to fix that annoying boot bug which someone so kindly sent me a patch for.

I'm sorry it's taking so long.

New layout and it's a wiki!

02:22, 11 December 2007 (PST)

I've been thinking about doing this for a while. I've come to somewhat like MediaWiki and I've been working on this template for a while. Seems to work rather well in my opinion.
