I want to upgrade a RH 5.0 (stock out-of-the-box 2.0.31 from RH CDs) box to 2.1.53 or later to add full support for the 16750 UART on a Pacific CommWare ExpressCard 920. I tried installing 2.1.53 (recommended by the mfr. of the 16750 card) but had problems with ncurses depending on glibc6 (broken lxdialog, IIRC). I think my problems were traceable to my having installed glibc 5.4.44 as per the "changes" file with the 2.1.53 source. Should I not install 5.4.44? I am also confused about how to handle replacing RPMed packages with tarballed packages--there are only a few of the prescribed upgrades that I haven't been able to find in the form of RPMs. I'm assuming I should 'rpm -e <package>' before installing from the tarball? At any rate, is there a doc online somewhere that explains the fine points and any 'gotchas' for RH 5.0 devel kernel upgrades? -- David Wollmann [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- PLEASE read the Red Hat FAQ, Tips, Errata and the MAILING LIST ARCHIVES! http://www.redhat.com/RedHat-FAQ /RedHat-Errata /RedHat-Tips /mailing-lists To unsubscribe: mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe" as the Subject.
