vfat problems
I recently installed Winlinux2000 on my Win98 machine. When I removed a file from within the WinLinux environment from my mail folder (Eudora for Windows), it screwed up the file permissions on all of the files in that folder. It set the Read Only flag on for all of them. It was actually a relief to see that all of the files were still intact though..

Issue compiling 2.4test10
I am attempting to cross-compile a 2.4 kernel for a PowerPC arch on an Intel machine, of which I have Debian 2.2 installed. I have successfully compiled a 2.4test9 kernel, but I got the following error message the first time I compiled (it failed due to this): powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu-ld -T arch/ppc/mm/mm.o drivers/input/inputdrv.o: In function 'keybdev_event': drivers/input/inputdrv.o(.text+0x16bc): undefined reference to 'emulate_raw' drivers/input/inputdrv.o(.text+0x16bc): relocation truncated to fit: R_PPC_REL24 emulate_raw make: *** [vmlinux] Error 1 Quoting Martin Costabel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: The function emulate_raw is used without any ifs, but its definition some lines earlier is enclosed in either #if defined(CONFIG_X86) || defined(CONFIG_IA64) || defined(__alpha__) || defined(__mips__) or #elif defined(CONFIG_ADB_KEYBOARD) So in your case you would need to put CONFIG_ADB_KEYBOARD=y into your .config file. Or change these weird #ifs. The bitkeeper version of the file is somewhat better in that it uses only one set of conditionals, #if defined(CONFIG_X86) || defined(CONFIG_IA64) || defined(__alpha__) || defined (__mips__) || defined(CONFIG_PPC) but the function is still used without any condition. From what he tells me, this remains an issue in the test10 release. I disabled the entire feature from within xconfig, recompiled, and it succeeded. If you need any more info, let me know and I'll see what I can do. -- Eric Reischer "You can't depend on your eyes [EMAIL PROTECTED]if your imagination is out of focus."

2.4 test10 bug
When cross compiling a PowerPC kernel on an i386 machine, got the following error: binfmt_elf.c: In function 'create_elf_tables': binfmt_elf.c:166: 'CLOCKS_PER_SEC' undeclared (first use in this function) binfmt_elf.c:166: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once binfmt_elf.c:166: for each function it appears in.) make[2]: *** [binfmt_elf.o] Error 1 for folder /usr/src/cross/powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu/src/linux/fs Copied the binfmt_elf.c code from the test9 tree and recompiled. Compile then proceeded without errors. If whoever is in charge of this section would like a copy of the .config file, I would be more than willing to attach it. On a side note the kernel was being compiled for a POWER3 processor, but it doesn't appear as though that would be a factor here. -- Eric Reischer "You can't depend on your eyes [EMAIL PROTECTED] if your imagination is out of focus."

Where is....
For some PowerPC kernels, there is an element of the kernel that writes information to the front LCD status panel on an IBM RS/6000. Does anybody know in which header or .c file contains the script that outputs this data? -- Eric Reischer "You can't depend on your eyes [EMAIL PROTECTED] if your imagination is out of focus."
