Hello Willibald Krenn,

you told that your kylix IDE is running.
I got the Problem that my kylix IDE is running too, but
I always get a error if compile a program with kylix.
The error is:
[Fehler] Falsches Dateiformat: libX11.so.6

I installed kylix with
linux32 setup.sh
and i start kylix with
linux32 startdelphi

my system is a suse9/amd64
kernel 2.4.21-201-default

any hint for me ?

thank you

ataraid doesn't work on 2.6. Known problem. The driver still
needs to be ported.


Thanks for pointing that out.. Well, as everything is now working with the patched SuSE 2.4 kernel (even Kylix IDE!) I've absolutely no reason to switch to 2.6.


It's most likely a bug in the shuttle BIOS. Try updating the BIOS.
Or disable "USB legacy support" in the BIOS setup (may or may not help)


True, after disabling 'USB Keyboard support' (buried somewhere deep in the BIOS config) even the automatic installer managed to boot from DVD!


You can test that by booting the kernel with idle=poll (not recommended
as a permanent solution because it burns a lot of power). If that
helps the BIOS is missing a workaround for an CPU bug that causes
it to corrupt 64bit registers when running the USB emulation code.


Hmm, I hope Shuttle will provide an update for this. But on the other hand it's not a complete disaster because my keyboard has a PS/2 and an USB plug, so I have the choice..


In the worst case you can run a 32bit X server as a workaround. That should
work.


I'll keep that in mind - if I'll somewhen need hardware acceleration this will probably the only way to go.


Well, the idea is when you do things with your grub configuration or your
kernel rpm you should be also able to fix it manually from a repair system.


I understand. However I thought the install DVD would also feature such a minimal repair system. In the old SuSE days (5.3 etc.) there always was the option to re-install the kernel IIRC..


The automatic options are more aimed at people who don't change intimate
details of the system. Obviously they cannot undo all the damage an user
is able to do by hand.


However, I'm still of the opinion that it would be very helpful if the install DVD featured a package reinstall/delete/.. dialog without having to go through all the disk-scans etc.


In general every time you have oopses you should report them. Otherwise
they cannot get fixed.


Seems this oops was related to the USB bug; Nevertheless, see below:

Thanks,
Willi
