Firstly, thanks to Hussam and John for being there. Actually, this was kinda my bad. I installed hugemem yesterday, but restarted my server this morning. Bothe the kernel and hugemem versions were 2.4.21-52.EL. Then, I tried to recompile dazuko, with the results I mentioned above. However, I notice via up2date that new kernel versions were available, so in installed those, including kernel-2.4.21-52.EL and kernel-hugemem-2.4.21-52.EL. When I compared /lib/modules/2.4.21-50.EL and /lib/modules/2.4.21-52.EL, I noticed that a lot was missing from the former. So, I compiled dazuko thusly: ./comfigure --kernelsrcdir=/usr/src/linux-2.4.21-52.EL && more and ... joy! Of course, dazuko won't work until I reboot using 2.4.21-52, but that's certainly OK. I have no idea what happened to the guts of /lib/modules/2.4.21-50.EL, cauing the dazuko compile to fail, but I'm good now (I think). Hope you all understood my explanation. Thanks again. -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean. _______________________________________________ Dazuko-help mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/dazuko-help
