Does anyone when SuSE RPM's are going to be officially released? I found ftp.suse.com/pub/people/kraxel in the archives. Is it safe? -- Hooman Baradaran hooman@yorku.ca www.hoomanb.com

With the next release of SUSE LINUX. There won't be an official Kernel update to 2.6 before that.

Depends on what you consider safe. It's not official, hasn't gone through a lot of testing or certification etc., but likely it will work. No support though. Don't use it on productive systems unless you really know what you're doing. Greetings from Bremen hartmut

not sure what you mean 'safe'. do you mean 'bug free' or 'cracker free' or what? :) i've got it running here just change "set installation source" in yast to point to "ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/kraxel/9.0-i386/" and then run 'install and remove software' to let yast do it; you will see 'kraxel' in the list of avail packages. dont forget to read the readme -- << http://michaeljtobler.homelinux.com/ >> Is it possible that software is not like anything else, that it is meant to be discarded: that the whole point is to always see it as a soap bubble?

just change "set installation source" in yast to point to "ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/kraxel/9.0-i386/" and then run 'install and remove software' to let yast do it; you will see 'kraxel' in the list of avail packages. dont forget to read the readme

Hi. I can see the people/kraxel in the Yast selection. How can I then see the content of the /kraxel ?. Is the readme placed in /kraxel ?. Oh yes I can see something from the /kraxel in Yast, but only what's installed here locally. -- Med venlig hilsen - Best regards. Erik Jakobsen - eja@urbakken.dk.

I set my installation source to the above, installed all Kraxel stuff, read the README - experimenal SuSE 2.6.0 kernels ============================== the following is really experimenal to me: (2) /sbin/generate-modprobe.conf | tee /etc/modprobe.conf (3) install kernel-*-26.rpm

AFter that I installed the three rpm's 2.6 Kernel default, smp, source - with yast - but couldn't determine any changes. I can't find any 2.6 kernel files in /usr/src What do I have to do to install 2.6.0 Kraxel (with yast without yast) (or does there exist cipher in the Readme that I didn't decrypt yet ?) Help deperately wanted ! best regards C. Emden
