Speaking of Kernel 2.4.0-test5, are there special SuSE patches I need to apply if I want to try it out with 6.4? Nope, I've compilled it here and it's running fine both under 6.3 and 6.4. Also masquerading under netfilter seems to be pretty faster than it was with ipchains.
I had some problems though with 2.4.0-test4 and earlier regarding networking.
Nice to know, thanks Bráulio.
Has anyone at SuSE packaged it as an RPM?
Hmmm... Not yet, but it compilled smoothly under both 6.3 and 6.4.
Which _compiler_ and version did you use?? Did you notice in Kernel Traffic #77 For 24 Jul ['gcc-2.91.66' Recommended For Kernel Compilation] http://kt.linuxcare.com/kernel-traffic/kt20000724_77.epl#9 in which Zack Brown writes: [In the course of discussion, Linus Torvalds mentioned that he used 'gcc-2.91.66', and that 'gcc-2.7.2' was "compiler non-grata". Richard Gooch replied, "Aha! Now I know what compiler you're using. Is there general agreement in the cabal that gcc-2.91.66 is Good[tm]?" Alan Cox and Randy Dunlap confirmed this, and the thread ended.] Is the one you use?? Thanks in advance.
