Yesterday I installed a new kernel: "Linux version 2.6.5-7.276-default (geeko@buildhost) (gcc version 3.3.3 (SuSE Linux)) #1 Mon Jul 24 10:45:31 UTC 2006" is what dmesg says which I read as being built as of 7-24-2006. I am looking for an updated rtl8150.c network driver that contains a section for a ZyXEL USB ethernet device.
I thought that it was included in the 7-24 build since it is included in 2.6.18-rc2 of 7-15-2006. Do I just not understand the process? On a
You downloaded 2.6.5 which is much older than 2.6.18. Your version contained just security fixes added.
related note, what kernel version can I run in my Suse 9.1 system? I show the highest number available to be 2.6.5-7.276 for 9.1. What happens if I try to install the 2-6-18 kernel? Will the system hose up?
It will break, you need some other system tools updated as well, Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger, aj@suse.de, http://www.suse.de/~aj/ SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126
