Then new 193 kernel, compiling....
I've just finished downloading the kernelsources for 193 to find them to be a package of 2.4.21 and lots of patches, rather than the usual kernel with patches applied. Now, I tried using the script suggested by the README.SuSE file... for p in $(./guards $(./arch-symbols)<series.conf); do patch -d /usr/src/linux-2.4.21/ -p1 < $p || break; done to apply the patches, but I did notice quite a lot of chunks flying past that weren't patching properly (by the looks of it). And on compile, when it gets to the mm section... lots of...

What file exactly did you download? The kernel-source...x86_64.rpm contains the sources applied, the src.rpm contains the individual patches. Perhaps you downloaded the wrong one?
Now, I tried using the script suggested by the README.SuSE file...
for p in $(./guards $(./arch-symbols)<series.conf); do patch -d /usr/src/linux-2.4.21/ -p1 < $p || break;
Use the spec file to do it in order. If that is written in the README, it should be fixed. Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger, aj@suse.de, http://www.suse.de/~aj SuSE Linux AG, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi Andrew: I think I found myself in a similar situation once. On that occasion I had downloaded and installed the {mumble-kernel}.src.rpm instead of the kernel-source-{mumble}.{arch}.rpm files. You don't want the first one. Confused the biscuits outta me at the time. "Whaddaya mean that's not the source? It says .src right there!" :-D Well, it's kind of the source but not the one you want to build your own kernel from. It's an RPM thing. If you didn't yet, try the kernel-source-*.rpm file. Cheers, - dash On Tuesday 27 January 2004 07:41, Andrew Halliwell wrote:
