I would like to know the answer to Ben's first question re: where to find info on make cloneconfig. I want to make some adjustments to my kernel, 2.4.2-4GB, to see if I can get v4l sorted out to run xawtv with my AIW32 card. I have no experience with building kernels, and thought that using cloneconfig might be safer than trying to do everything from scratch. I have downloaded lx_sus24-2.4.2.SuSE-5.i386.rpm Thanks Eddie On Sunday 13 May 2001 2:09 am, Philipp Thomas wrote:

Anyone know where to get info on make cloneconfig. I haven't done it in a while and I can find anything in the SDB about it. I wanna go up to 2.4.4.
SuSE or vanilla kernel? For the latter you'd have to extract the patch from Huberts collection at pub/people/mantel/next. If you use the SuSE kernel *and* have a SuSE kernel running, just go to /usr/src/linux-2.4.4.SuSE and issue 'make cloneconfig'. It'll first do a 'zcat /proc/config.gz >.config' and then a 'make oldconfig'. More questions? Just holler ;-))
