[SuSE Linux] Problems with new kernel
I'm having some not so serious problems after compiling a new (2.2.3) kernel. The first symptom is the fact that during bootup I get some messages (Which I can't remember, and I've been looking trough faqs as well to see if they are there.) with regards to some module loading problems. (Can't find module MAJOR 4 something or other;) And I compiled some filesystems as modules, and I wonder, shouldn't these be loaded when needed? They didn't on my system, so I recompiled the kernel with everything inside. (When I tried modprobe I got can't find module...) The ppp device is missing. (I did configure that into the kernel.) Or rather, I get temporaryily unavailable, which isn't good, since it is what I get whenever I try. (And I can't find the hisax module with modprobe, this one I think I compiled as a module.) So, I'm a bit lost now. Yeah, I've followed the compil instructions in the distrib, I've read in the SuSE manual. (So I think I'm not turning to the list in an untimely manner.) Any help appricieated. (This is, I think loosly knit to the XFree86 problems I experience as well, ie. mouse not working.) -- Paul Kenneth Egell-Johnsen Sales Support and System Development Metaphor Systems as -- To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e Check out the SuSE-FAQ at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A">http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A</A>> and the archive at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A">http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A</A>>

did you "make modules_install"? -- A New York City judge ruled that if two women behind you at the movies insist on discussing the probable outcome of the film, you have the right to turn around and blow a Bronx cheer at them. -- To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e Check out the SuSE-FAQ at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A">http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A</A>> and the archive at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A">http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A</A>>

make clean # Just to be sure that everything is pristine. make config # Obviously make depend # To get all the dependencies sorted out make bzImage # Only thing that works make modules make modules_install Exactly as the readme suggests. No joy. But I allready got some help which suggests I should turn of serial probing, I'll test that to get rid of some problems. Then I'll go ahead with getting the correct data for my cards in place. Perhaps more will work then. -- Paul Kenneth Egell-Johnsen Sales Support and System Development Metaphor Systems as -- To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e Check out the SuSE-FAQ at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A">http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A</A>> and the archive at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A">http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A</A>>
