Compiling now...
Good for you! Tell us what happens...
Well, at work ( P-III 1Ghz, SUSE 9.0 Pro), I can't even get the basic stuff to run "make menuconfig" compiled. It moans about curses.h, but it is installed. I'll reintall that rpm and see if it helps
At home (AthlonXP, SUSE 9.0 Pro also), kernel compiled fine, but I get no output to screen. It seems like it's booting, but nothing happened. I thought it had something to do with the different console options that had to be enabled (this one bit me before), but I did put those in. In fact, I used the config file I had with 2.6-test11 which worked fine. Strange. I'll fiddle more tonight.

I seem to get screen output only with vga=normal, tried vga=scan and other framebuffer settings only cause errors or blank screen. I also get many services reporting failed that are working. With 2.6.0-test11 hotplug worked, with 2.6.0 it doesn't. I also have to use both acpi=off and apm=off to get a full boot, without them I get all init vaules respawning too fast, 2.6.0-test10 was OK with just acpi=off, then something I can't figure out has changed, causing this problem on the already built and working 2.6.0-test 10, 2.6.0-test11, then 2.6.0-test11-mm1 and now 2.6.0. Athlon XP2200+ and SuSE 9.0 Pro. Regards Sid. -- Sid Boyce .... Hamradio G3VBV and keen Flyer Linux Only Shop.
