Hi, I have tried to compile and boot the 2.4.0-test2 kernel. It compiles and boots, but there are some problems. I don't know if it's caused by wrong config or bugs in the kernel. Here's my problems: - I can't use the cybervision64 driver. It compiles without problems but it is not used by the kernel when I boot. bootstrap line: bootstrap --apus -k vmlinux root=/dev/hda7 video=cyber:800x600-8 60nsram debug=mem - pppd say that the kernel does not have PPP support although I did compile ppp support into the kernel. (My pppd version is 2.3.7, is it to old ?). It looks from the dmesg output that ppp support is there... - I can't mount AFFS partitions. The system hangs when I try to do this. Otherwise things seem ok so far. I will do some more testing later. Hopefully some of you can give me some help with my current problems. I won't be of much help when it comes to programming as my c knowledge is very limited. I've included the dmesg output and my .config file: Searching for SAVEKMSG magic...

Get the latest pppd, IIRC 2.3.11 is needed for 2.4 . > - I can't mount AFFS partitions. > The system hangs when I try to do this. Others have reported that as well - seems like the "fixed" AFFS only works on i386 so far :-/ Michel -- The computer revolution is over.

Check drivers/video/fbcon.c (IIRC). I took a look, but I didn't understand much of it. Guess I'll have to leave this to someone that knows what to look for :) >> - pppd say that the kernel does not have PPP support although I did... > Get the latest pppd, IIRC 2.3.11 is needed for 2.4 . I got 2.3.10-3 which was the latest I could find on ftp.linuxppc.org. pppd now recognizes the ppp support, but is not able to access /dev/ttySx, so I can't communicate with the modem. (Unable to access /dev/ttyS0 : No such device). It works fine with kernel 2.2.10 of course... - glenn |

I even tried to compile a new kernel just to make sure. I selected support for Amiga serial port in the config. CONFIG_AMIGA_BUILTIN_SERIAL=y Are there any other options I have to set to make it work ? - glenn |

Are there any boot messages about the serial (sup)port? Michel -- Me? A skeptic?

Nope. Guess it should be, right ? If someone with working serialsupport could send me their config file so that I can find out what I'm doing wrong, that would be great. - glenn |
