I just tried Fedora 16, its quite full of bugs from Anaconda to gnome and everything in between!
I understand the political reasons for making the full kernel source so obfuscated to install but I wish they would have some mercy on us guys out in userland. I may end up installing something like slackware because it doesn't go off the beaten path like the RH based distros.

Also the PPS kernel module is > already built and installed, just need to load it. The kernel includes general PPS support, but there is no support for PPS on serial devices (pps_ldisc module). You'll probably need to use a newer version of kernel or backport the module to the old version. You'll also need to recompile the ntp package with the timepps.h header. It might be easier to try a newer distro. For instance, Fedora 14 and later have kernel, ntp and chrony packages compiled with PPS support and it should work out of the box, even with SELinux enabled :). -- Miroslav Lichvar _______________________________________________ questions mailing list questions@lists.ntp.org http://lists.ntp.org/listinfo/questions
