What's the general consensus on list? Anyone using gcc-3.2 to compile the kernel and having problems? Since RH 8.0 came out, I have been recompiling their most up-to-date kernel-sources, because I wanted to have NTFS support. I am now at 2.4.18-19.8.0. I have always been using gcc-3.2, all compiles went without any probs, and the resulting kernels seem to be stable. When configuring the kernel with make menuconfig, I started off with one of the config files in /usr/src/linux-2.4/configs (kernel-2.4.18-i686.config) and blotted out all options that I didn't need. After each kernel build, I also compiled some third party kernel modules like NVidia and ALSA, still no problems. Problems only arrived when I tried out RH's version of kernel-source-2.4.20 from their beta-distribution (Phoebe); I still could compile, but the resulting kernel was odd (eg broken USB mouse support), so I dropped it.

Check the threads a few days ago. I gave up on making the Z53 work with

I've decided to go with the HP6127. Took a freinds laptop (slack 8.1) to
London drugs plugged in the 6127 and had it up and running in no time.
Printed off a hi-res photo and wow! This is definately the one I want. I
did check with linuxprinting before posting, I have found that it is
always a good idea to see what others have found with hardware. At least
then you can have a pretty good idea of what lies ahead during the

During a 2 hour evaluation before our Chief Justice, CEO, and CIO, as well as the management team, ext3 never did survive 5 hard resets in a row. We rebuilt the machines exactly the same, only difference being on an xfs filesystem, all packages were the same. xfs still, to this day, has never failed to recover itself, even under almost 100% load. We migrated our Informix database from raw logical partitions under AIX to xfs partitions under linux and the data set was monitored for corruption at the moment of impact with absolutely NO loss. Even our vendor who was previously only certifying their product under ext2 or 3 added an addendum to our supportfolio stating that they will support xfs and last week told us that unofficially xfs will become the defacto standard for their Informix/Linux/FACTS product line. As an aside, my copy of Linux Journal just arrived, with SGI's ALTIX 3000 on the cover. It's the ultimate badass linux box, with up to 64 Itanium2 64 bit processors, and 512GB ram, with a 512 processor/4TB memory version coming soon. This puppy ROCKS! Check out the filesystem performance chart, Figure 7, page 48 for a comparison. Ext3 works great for most people, but I've had and seen too many problems to consider it ready for a production machine in our environment. I'm glad you've had good luck with it though. -- Andrew Mathews - 8:44pm up 6 days, 2:30, 8 users, load average: 1.23, 1.09, 1.08 - Conversion, fastidious Goddess, loves blood better than brick, and feasts most subtly on the human will. -- Virginia Woolf, Mrs. Dalloway ___ Linux-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe/Suspend/Etc - http://www.linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users

Re: ghostscript compile
You might find it easier just to get a version of gs which has your driver compiled in it. As I recall, trying to compile gs was beyond me.

Re: Via C3 processor?
crap. C3 basically equals the performance of a slow PII. sure its usable, but not for anything other than email casual web surfing.

I remember attempting to help a friend compile a print driver in ghostscript about 2 years ago. I was praying to be thrown into a circle of hell after fighting with it for a few hours. ghostscript is one of those ancient UNIX legacy apps that really needs a massive overhaul. Its been ported to death and really is utterly frightening in its internals. -- ~ L.
