2.5.61

[Leslie Donaldson]

Hello,

Got the new kerenel here are my results.
-) Base kernel now compiles out of box.
-) firewire dma.c no compile. patch was late should be in next rev.
Maintainers already found bug.
-) Sound opl3sa2 no compile. Entered patch today
-) make modules_install still has
depmod: Unhandled relocation of type 10 for .text

well there you go. For clarification until I get a clean install
I'm not going to try and boot this thing. (I like my raid working.)

I don't use firewire, sound and so on, therefor I can't tell you my results
regarding this.

There were also some problems with make modules_install for me!

I'll let it run now... Let's see. If the machine crashes I don't mind too much.
It's just an old Compaq AS1000 5/333 only used by me as Alpha-teststation and
some kind of "fileserver".

If it works well now and hopefully without crashing, I believe 2.6 will also
work fine... :-)

Best regards,
Oliver

The pnp stuff... This bites PCs, too.

Worked out of the box for me.

AXPpci33, I'd probably also switch on my Miata and my Avanti.

Sometimes, running Linux on != i386 is a bit problematic, typically
because core interfaces or basic functionalities where touched with
arch-specific code only written for i386... But I continue to run my
hardware zoo, asking for the missing bits:-)

How did you handle it?

What version of modutils was installed?

Hmm. I put the drivers inside the kernel; I made it monolithic. :o)

See the comment from Jan-Benedict Glaw in LKML....

And we salute you for it.

God bless exotic hardware :)
