Darrick, I am again with my problems. Please, can you guide me how can I install the drivers for my NIC in AstLinux? Not in details only a orientation. This weekend I have tried to make a package with the drivers from Realtek without success. In the drivers not appears a configure file only a makefile and I have tried several thinks but not works. My Linux knowledge is very limited. I am really very frustrated. If I use trunk the image file not boot. If use 0.4 I need to install a NIC and remove the ISDN card. Thanks & regards, -- Manuel |

Unfortunately that means it won't be supported on 0.4.5. I'll talk with Kristian and decide if we're going to upgrade the kernel in 0.4 or just maintain it as a security fix branch. If he's anticipating a 0.5 release in the next month or so, I'm not going to bother upgrading the kernel on 0.4. If it's going to be longer, I'll take a look at it, but it's going to be a few weeks.

I was hoping that would do it. I guess that would have been too easy. It would be a lot of work to backport the full driver from 2.6.20. 0.4 is the stable tree and I won't upgrade the kernel. Do you have any serious aversions to running 0.5 when it is released? -- Kristian Kielhofner |

Kristian, I would like to use 0.5 but the problem is time. What is your plan for releasing 0.5? I need to finish this system in a few weeks and by the moment the system not boot. I need to resolve a lot of thinks (vlan, provisioning, dial plan, sounds, directory...) and test the stability of all. My first intention was always to start using trunk. Then make all the development and when the 0.5 be ready try to upgrade. I have reviewed in kernel.org the changes logs from 2.6.16.12 to 2.6.20. A lot of changes and several speaking about mini-itx motherboards. In this moment I prefer go to trunk but the problem is trying to install in my compact flash. The generated livecd works but not the install part. I have tested grup but give me another error about a file not found. I have seen that you are upgrading grup package. I will try again this night and give you my results. Only another question. Exists differences in trunk between Geni586 and Via targets? Thanks, -- Manuel -----Mensaje original----- De: ast...@li...
