After about 4 hours it is still "rock and roll!" :-) There are a couple issues with bttv loading and then exiting, but a modprobe after X is loaded solves that. No nVidia driver will compile, but I expected that as a test kernel. Frame buffer at boot just blanks the screen, which comes back as soon as X loads. VGA=normal in lilo.conf solves that. No major problems to report, ext3 / jbd all load fine. I'll do some more log analysis in the morning about the bttv. Oh, and the alsa 0.9.7 driver is noticeably better sounding on my system than 0.9.6. Been trying to build my own 0.9.8 rpms from the source, but got in over my head a little quickly. <:-) If I could get alsa-0.9.8 and nVidia drivers, I'd keep running this baby. Very responsive compared 2.4.22-21 on my 1.3G 9.2 cooker machine! Tim -- _ ( ) ASCII ribbon campaign against HTML e-mail x registered Linux user # 329428 / \ GnuPG KeyID 6B5A70DF www.keyserver.net
