Hello !
>>> Yes (at least there is a config option 'Ariadne II and X-Surf' ;), it's
>>> enabled in the precompiled 2.4.1 kernel.
I can't use the 4.1.x kernel because I have debian 2.2.x distro .....
Have any of you got the apus 2.2.x kernel which works with X-surf ? If do PLEASE send me this via mail ....
What about the linuxpatch supplied on x-surf(jens) page ? Which version of ariadne src. drvr should be patched with it ? ( the source from 2.2.8 i owe doesn't work ) If you have the src. of ariadne driver PLEASE send it to me.
If none of above PLEASE give me any contact with anyone who uses Apus with X-Surf.
If none I have to get full 4.x distro ( is it called linuxppc2000 ?)
Greetz for both of You

You should be able to move a checked out tree without any problems.

CVS uses absolute path names only in the CVS/R{oot,epository} files, for the
location of the repository. Only if you move the repository you'll have
troubgles with that.

I have a couple of question concerning CVS. I used CVS to download the 2.3 kernel to my PC. I then tarred and gzip the directory and copied it to my Amiga. I tried to update the 2.3 tree, using CVS, at the new location. What I found out was, moving the tree seems to confuse CVS and the update is not working properly. Actually I'm not sure it's not working properly, but it's not acting the way other updating sessions go. With a normal update a list scrolls by with lots of Updating... messages and then maybe only a couple files are actually changed. But after moving the sources CVS seems to be sending all the files back to the server and who knows what's really happening. I suspect that CVS is looking at the absolute paths to the sources. How can I tell CVS to use the relative path names? -- Fred |

Since the Hydra driver (with a real ne2k) is still separate, it's actually a
driver for Zorro Realtek 8019 boards only. So I decided to keep
CONFIG_ARIADNE2 (for now).

What compiler version are you using to compile the kernel? For PPC, you n=

gcc 2.95.2.

With the 2.4.1 kernelsources the same problem arises, but X is working (oversized of course)! Or shall I trim my monitor values? I'm using CV64/3D in 1024x786-8 and it's screen values fits all right within AmigaOS and within Linux (using the 2.2.10 and 2.4 kernels compiled out of the sources before you made the changes!)!

I also compiled myself the kernel with the 2.4.1 config file and with the 2.4.0 config file too. I get the same problems. I looked back in this devel mailing list and i saw that during the pci fix up you encoutered the same type of crashes. Particularly i read that the CONFIG_FB_PM2_PCI in config should be disabled otherwise it produced that crash for Mr Ramiega , but it is already unset in your config files. So any idea ? |

Usually command line, but AFAIR the editor has worked the same for me. --=20 Earthling Michel D=E4nzer (MrCooper) \ Debian GNU/Linux (powerpc) de= veloper CS student, Free Software enthusiast \ XFree86 and DRI project m= ember |

According to Documentation/fb/modedb.txt
video=<driver>:<xres>x<yres>[-<bpp>][@refresh]
so -60 is 60 bpp, @60 would be 60 Hz vertical
No mention of ':mode:' in modedb.txt.
If I'm missing something tell me now, I'm working on the modedb mods.

Probably because I deleted the mode that you're passing on the command line. I could put the orignal modes back until I do the modedb mods. ken. |
