can you try your old kernel?
-
google linuxsea. go to chapter 7, manually configuring a kernel.
here is pappy's last seed.
i copy it to linux folder, run make old config, then make menuconfig to add my drivers.well, that didn't work. i can't upload file correctly.
the link on
http://www.funtoo.org/Additional_Kernel_Resources
for kernel seeds is dead
here is a good link

-
after grub loads my kernel i'm at login in less than 2 seconds. i build kernels with as few drivers and modules as i can.
-
there was a kernel paramater --slow-usb or something like that i can't find it now.
there is rootwait
/usr/src/linux/Documentation/kernel-parameters -
sandro, i think you are missing the point on pstate driver.
when i use i7z, it may show frequency maxed out at 3.9GHz, but c1 state shows 97 percent of processor is in halt state.
isn't that power saving?
for a long time i had microcode enabled in kernel and would see in dmesg something about microcode driver.
i assumed it was working but there is more too it.
i use git-sources. i use method two from this page

-
i7z works good for monitoring in real time and showing c states, which i think are more relevant than frequency. just moving my mouse around can raise frequency to max level

Every 5.0s: cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep "MHz" Fri Jul 15 18:43:12 2016
cpu MHz : 3899.902
cpu MHz : 3900.329
cpu MHz : 3899.902
cpu MHz : 3900.115
look at documentation - /usr/src/linux/Documentation/cpu-freq/
i disable acpi driver enable pstate and powersave gov and pstate works automatically. googling pstate - it gets too technical for me.
i use cpupower frequency info and cpupower frequency set

analyzing CPU 0:
driver: intel_pstate
CPUs which run at the same hardware frequency: 0
CPUs which need to have their frequency coordinated by software: 0
maximum transition latency: Cannot determine or is not supported.
hardware limits: 800 MHz - 3.90 GHz
available cpufreq governors: performance powersave
current policy: frequency should be within 800 MHz and 3.90 GHz.
The governor "powersave" may decide which speed to use
within this range.
current CPU frequency: 895 MHz (asserted by call to hardware)
boost state support:
Supported: yes
Active: yes
i do not have cpupower added to rc -
i did make menuconfig with linux-4.2.0-gentoo-r1 kernel, after selecting the options in the menu, i did make && make modules_install, after that i did boot-update -v but it only appears the older kernel,
so i can not see the new kernel in the grub menu what i am missing?
make sure /boot is mounted
cd /usr/src/linux
cp arch/x86/boot/bzImage /boot/<new-name>
-
i have xorg-server-1.17.2-r1
try
#echo "x11-base/xorg-server" >> /etc/portage/package.unmask
-
It might be possible to break this cycle
by applying any of the following changes:
- dev-libs/openssl-1.0.2d (Change USE: -kerberos)
- app-crypt/mit-krb5-1.13.2 (Change USE: -pkinit)
do you really need kerberos use flag enabled?
also i often install xorg-server from chroot with no problem
-
i tried with and without clutter too.
i can do without parole. just wonder why it never works for me.
-
note: i can run parole as root.

wierd that page is inaccessible.

too bad there are no seeds at kernel-seeds

thanks for the info -
$xset q
showed dpms enabled and turning off screen at 600 seconds
$xset -dpms
solved problem

Dyyryath at free-dc.org made an avatar for me.
http://www.free-dc.org/forum/showthread.php?4192-How-To-Configure-the-Client --post 7
i entered this avatar on my profile page. my profile page shows a fully functional flashing G in the image.
[flashing G as in ghost that you do not see ;) ]
however on the forum only the 'frame' is shown, not the G inside it.
i have tried uploading the file from a saved file on my computer and from the free-dc web site.
any ideas
