You may use gcc 3.0.x instead if you wish, although it may cause problems. Later versions of gcc have not received much testing for Linux kernel compilation, and there are almost certainly bugs (mainly, but not exclusively, in the kernel) that will need to be fixed in order to use these compilers.

Compiling 2.4.20 for Woody
Hello, I've got a small problem when compiling the 2.4.20 kernel for my woody machine. I've learned how to use make-kpkg which is quite nice, I've also learned how to deal with the .config files, but here is my problem. When I compile the kernel everything works fine, including the modules, except that the Power-Down function doesn't shut the computer off, it just sits there although it isn't locked up and I can still switch between consoles. When I use a prepackaged kernel APM works fine (for example with 2.4.18 deb or with the 2.4.20-k6 Bunk deb) and the computer shuts down normally (I have apmd installed). Im using the original source for 2.4.20, i.e. not a deb package. Is there anything Debian specific that I may be missing for the kernel to work with apmd? BTW this isn't machine specific, it happens when I try to compile the kernel for my laptop too. Thanks for any hints, Chris -- Dr.-Ing. C.

Move /usr/src/linux/.config to another file (I use "fig"). For one of the Debian kernels that "works", copy /boot/config-2.4.20 to /usr/src/linux/.config, and do "make xconfig". In "General Setup" note what's turned on, and what's turned off. Now copy "fig" back to /usr/src/linux/.config (yes, overwrite it). Do "make xconfig" and duplicate the power management settings that work in the Debian kernel. Kevin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Re: Compiling 2.4.20 for Woody
I actually did a similar thing except I used the .config file form Knoppix 3.2 and copied it to my /usr/src/linux-2.4.20/.config, renaming the old .config to .config.old. I then used make menuconfig and only chaged the config in that I took out ISDN and PCMCIA support, everything else I left the same. I'll have to try it with a working /boot/config to be sure, but the Knoppix 3.2 kernel also shuts down fine.

compiling 2.4.20-rc4 on woody
I need some advice on compiling kernel 2.4.20-rc4 on woody. I have got kernel-source-2.4.18 (from woody) and would like to use it, as I am on a slow modem connection. I tried to apply the official patch-2.4.19 first, but it fails on a few items, probably because my source is patched by Debian (?). Are there debianized patches to go from kernel-source-2.4.18 to 20-rc4? Or must I unpatch? (Where can I get the file to feed to patch to do so?)
