You did not say what release of Mandrake you are running.

BTW you are aware that the smpkernel is for multi-processor systems
(more than 1 CPU).

Hi all

I've googled, looked through the how-to's, Twiki'd FAQ'd, and everywhere else 
I can think of.

There are hundreds of pages of help for upgrading the kernel. Most of it 
incomprehensible:)

But I cannot find how to tell what version I currently have.

   Well, it's not stupidity, unless I am too :)  I don't entirely 
understand the change either.  You can search the archives of the 
cooker ML, or the linux-kernel ML for better explainations.

   Seems what was called kernel-headers were actually glibc headers 
all along.  kernel-source contains the actual kernel headers. By 
completely integrating the headers into glibc, they don't need to be 
updated unless glibc is, and are not as dependent on kernel version.


 Like I said, if I understood it better, I could explain it better ;)

excuse my stupidity but I'm still not clear on this. Why are they both not 
the same version?

[newbie] kernel version

2003-04-05 Thread pete
Before I move to 9.1 there is something I have never understood on 9.0 and 
previous releases, I would be grateful for an explanation.

I have installed :-

kernel-source 2.4.19-16mdk
kernel-headers 2.4.18-41mdk

Why the different version numbers and what are the implications?

[newbie] Kernel Version Error @ bootup

1999-10-30 Thread Taki Shirayanagi

Hi,
When I boot my Mandrake Linux computer it gives me an error message that 
says something like incorrect kernel version in /boot/system.map. It says 
that when it starts to start the system services like sendmail and 
linuxconf. Then when I try to run sndconfig to configure my sound card it 
says that my kernel does not support sound. Also i noticed that the vmlinuz 
file has a different version number then the kernel version number. I have 
tried reinstalling linux and it still gives me the same error message when I 
boot up the computer.I also upgraded to Mandrake Linux 6.1. Also how do I 
setup a welcome message when someone telnets into my computer?
