[expert] new kernel doesn't leave boot messages
I've got a few kernels running now for different things. If I boot from the standard 8.2 kernel, I can use dmesg to see how the boot went and any messages that came up during the boot. When I boot from the cooker kernel, however, dmesg still displays the result of the last standard 8.2 kernel boot. How do I get the cooker kernel to write the boot messages so I can see them with dmesg? Darren Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com

Re: [expert] new kernel doesn't leave boot messages
Nope...I don't have the quiet option on this kernel. I do have the quiet option on my standard kernel and I still get the dmesg stuff for that one so the quiet option must be just for displaying boot time messages, not for writing them to the file.

[expert] New kernel can't find eth0
I was overly quick to say things were working after upgrading to 2.4.4 (in order to get the Thinkpad trackpoint working). Now it doesn't seem to know anything about networking, including being able to find eth0. My first reaction is to back up to my 7.2 recovery disk, and recompile the kernel, cuz I must have missed something in there. Any better ideas? -- A. Rick

I haven't been able to get 2.4.4 working either on two separate Dell laptops, one runing Mandrake 8.0 and the other running RedHat 7.1. 2.4.3 works just fine. I think I'll just wait for 2.4.5 and hope it's better. -- Michael Jarvis [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.jarvis.com/home.php Freiheit stirbt in kleinen Stücken.
[expert] new kernel, X and /dev/mouse
Hello. Interesting things are above my head. I'v donwloaded linux kernel 2.04 source and compiled it. While rebooting kodzo asked me that there was found new PS/2 mouse and old one will be removed. Incidentally I've pressed ok. GPM denied to start. Reason file /dem/mouse not found. Ops. X starts without any problems but pointer freezed and did not respond. I've created symlink to /dev/ttyS0 by command: $ln -s /dev/ttyS0 /dev/mouse Huhu. Gpm worked. And mouse reacted in X. But how? He making only first move (very but very little move) directly to right top. I've changed image to boot. kernel 2.2 series states that I've not any PS/2 mouse. 2.4 series ( I've forget: I've also installed cooker version after: kernel-2.4.1-2mdklinus.rpm) are stateing that I have PS/2. Problem in that I've not any PS/2 mouse. It is an serial 3 button mouse. Mousedrake shows both serial and PS/2 options at each start. how about this problem? Must I buy PS/2 mouse only because I've installed new kernel and do not know how to return? Or I have to work on consol only and without mouse on X (oh my Allah). And it is very diffucult to install system again: I'm with ATA 66 mainboard. So LM 7.2 dosn't recognizes LM7.2 install CD. I've installed all (everything but basesystem) by hand on consol.

Re: [expert] new kernel, X and /dev/mouse
What sort of mouse do you have. No-one can help unless thats known. Your post suggests a serial mouse. Also consider what "features" you have enabled in the kernel and wether they match your set-up. If you enabled ps/2 mouse and did not have it enabled before, kodzu probably detected the ps/2 mouse PORT, and not a ps/2 mouse itself. - Original Message - From: "Vasif Ismailoglu MD" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, February 07, 2001 9:56 PM Subject: [expert] new kernel, X and /dev/mouse Hello.

[expert] New kernel will not boot
Hi, The new kernel I have just made will not boot properly. When booting from floppy It stops at 'Setting profile to: ' . Any one know what I need to include to get it to boot Thanks Iain
[expert] new kernel
Does anyone know if Mandrake will be releasing a 2.4 kernel update for mdk 7.2? I had some minor problems installing the source for one of the test kernels for 2.4. For some reason it wouldn't boot. So I'm just wondering if there might be a mandrake update for the newest kernel so I can install it from a mdk RPM. Thanks There's plenty of semicolons to go around

[expert] New Kernel
Hi! I updated my old kernel (2.2.5) to a new kernel (2.2.12). But I lost my sound modules. As a matter of fact, in the make xconfig oe make menuconfig it didn´t has the option to my soundcard. Just a few were available. Then I copied the modules I needed from the old kernel and ran insmod. It said that the kernel module was older then the actual kernel. Then I ran insmod again if the -f option to force the older modules but then it showed a message like ¨unknown..¨ and a lot of numbers. Is there a new module for the new kernel? What did I wrong? Hoe can I solve this problem? The same message appeared to me when I tried to load the module epat.o which is necesary for the HP CD-R writer. This module I took from my new kernel. I choosed it from the kernel configuration. Something wierd is happenind here Thank you!! Felipe Almeida
