Why? Netraverse is very good about making a win4lin enabled kernel available for every officially released Mandrake kernel, and they usually make it available within days of the release. Well, then we could have better integration (the win4lin-supplied kernel RPMS only allow one win4lin kernel, whereas my packages on Club allow up,smp,enterprise and multiple versions to co-exist), and why should people who buy Powerpack/ProSuite have to download win4lin kernels, would it not be more convenient to have them on the CDs? Also, it seems at least a few people here run win4lin on cooker, it might save us all some time to have one package, than to all be building our own kernels (and doing the patching, which often takes longer). Oh, my win4lin-utils package also provides menu entries for Win4lin (in menu format, so they work when you use Mandake's menus). You make some valid points. What would be the harm in just adding the win4lin support to the official kernel? Does it hurt anything if win4lin is nevr installed? That solves all the problems. -- /g Outside of a dog, a man's best friend is a book, inside a dog it's too dark to read -Groucho Marx

Sorry I took so long to respond. I was about to post glibc 2.3.2-5mdk on
the web, then I tried 2.3.2-13mdk and it fixed the win4lin problems.
Things are still working with 2.3.2-14mdk.

[Cooker] Anyone having troubles with win4lin 4 on cooker?
I have been running win4lin on cooker for quite a while, usually using the kernel from a stable release, and haven't had problems. I don't run it that often on my cooker box, but had just compiled a win4lin-kernel based on 2.4.21-6mdk, and wanted to test it. Now, under both the 2.4.21-0.18mdk and the new 2.4.21-6mdk kernel it segfaults at start. I didn't want to upgrade to win4lin 5, since I don't need any of their new features ... Anyone else running win4lin on a cooker box?

No, since it segaults on kernels it worked on before. I tested on
2.4.21.0.18mdk on cooker, which is what my 9.1 desktop at home runs
(where win4lin works).

Buchan already responded with the relevant strace/ldd info (i.e.,
that's what I'm seeing too).
As I said in my previous message (and which I'll repeat in case it
didn't come through for some reason), glibc is the culprit. 2.3.2-5mdk
works. 2.3.2-10mdk breaks. I don't have copies of any versions in
between anymore. :(
Hmm, I would be interested in a glibc{,-devel}-2.3.2-5mdk, so I can test
my 2.4.21.6mdk win4lin kernel and then build a 2.4.22.0.3mdk one also.
BTW, is there interest in having win4lin kernels in contrib? They would
be small (~60k SRPM, ~1.2MB per win4lin-kernel package), and just
require the kernel from main.

Buchan
