I'm compiling it too, but I'm not sure if it will work out-of-the-box with SuSE 9.0. Can anyone tell me?
Regards, Marco
For all the brave: kernel 2.6 is out!
Compiling now...
Good for you! Tell us what happens...
Hi.
I've got now 2.6.0 running with SuSE 8.2. Just took the .config supplied with 8.2 but had to remove the EISA and AIC79xx drivers. Modules seem not to load automatically, so some modprobes and rc... are necessary.

For modules, you need to pay attention to /etc/modprobe.conf. I couldn't get anywhere with the one I generated by /sbin/generate-modprobe.conf, so I modded the one that shipped with 9.0 and most things loaded automatically, except usblp.ko and nvidia.ko. Everything worked for over a week, until I rebooted last night (previous reboots were OK), when I get segfaults on some of the init scripts and I get as far as stuff respawning too fast, that was with 2.6.0-test11 and 2.6.0-test11-mm1.
