Proberen in eigenschappen. 'libncurses6' die 'ncurses' levert is al geïnstalleerd. 'libncurses5' die 'ncurses' levert is al geïnstalleerd. So it looks like ncurses is installed.

Geen kandidaat voor bijwerken van 'ncurses-devel-5.7-14.1.i586'. De hoogst beschikbare versie is al geïnstalleerd. So that one is also installed.

Hmm, I cannot read that. Could you instead run LANG=en zypper in ncurses-devel and attach the output. Also what's the output of make V=1 menuconfig ? Finally, what rpm says: rpm -ql ncurses-devel ? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Oh, are you trying to build in /usr/src as a user which doesn't have permissions to write there? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I work as a normal user and I don't know if a normal user has write permissions on /usr/src.
No, they don't. (Closing as invalid.)
Im trying to make this change : .. CONFIG_MINIX_SUBPARTITION=y
It would be easier for you to build the kernel in OBS. Like you create a home:...:kernel project and link the 11.4 kernel like: osc linkpac Kernel:openSUSE-11.4 kernel-source home:...:kernel kernel-desktop Then you upload modified config.tar.bz2 to home:...:kernel kernel-desktop and that's it. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
