Hi all, I'm trying to refresh my linux box with glibc2.2 and latest kernel breath. I've got a couple of troubles...
1) any pb. with SCSI uw2940 and kernel 2.4.3??
I got one msg warning about SCSI timeouts endless repeating while booting (I boot in text mode). This curiously happened after cooking my 2.4.3 with the same recipe used for 2.4.1 and 2.4.2 (but for reiserFS as a module).
Get the latest version of the aic7xxx driver at:
The file is linux-aic7xxx-6.1.8-src.tar.gz. Unpack it and replace the directory in /usr/src/linux/drivers/scsi/aic7xxx for the one in that tar file. The version in 2.4.3 has some problems. Alternatively, use the aic7xxx_old driver.
2) I've got a pb. after installing glibc 2.2.: - on locale. My ENV variables are correctly set, my /usr/share/locale/xxx do exist, but perl, when starting, complains about missing locale (and defaults to C, or POSIX)... - trying to launch wine and got a missing "stdscr" from libwine.so.1
What release of suse are you running? Suse 7.1 is glibc 2.2-based, so there is no need to mess with it. If you are upgrading some earlier release, I would suggest you to upgrade your distribution instead of the C libraries. EVERYTHING depends on them, if there is any backwards compatibility problem to earlier glibc versions some of your installed applications may not work correctly. -- Rafael
