[SLUG] Problem compiling kernel on Redhat 8.0
Hi, I've googled this problem yesterday to no avail I hope someone here can help me out. I need to compile a kernel on my Redhat 8.0 laptop but when I do the make bzImage I starts compiling but after a few mins it stops with the last few lines of code reading: drivers/char/drm/drm.o: In function `sis_fb_alloc': drivers/char/drm/drm.o(.text+0x12ff8): undefined reference to `sis_malloc' drivers/char/drm/drm.o(.text+0x130a6): undefined reference to `sis_free' drivers/char/drm/drm.o: In function `sis_fb_free': drivers/char/drm/drm.o(.text+0x13119): undefined reference to `sis_free' drivers/char/drm/drm.o: In function `sis_final_context': drivers/char/drm/drm.o(.text+0x1354f): undefined reference to `sis_free' make: *** [vmlinux] Error 1 I have tried to compile the following Kernel versions: 2.4.20, 2.4.21-pre4, 2.4.21-pre4 with the acpi patch applied from http://acpi.sourceforge.net. Running rpm -qa |grep gcc Says: gcc-c++-3.2-7 gcc-3.2-7 libgcc-3.2-7 Ideas anyone??? Another issue which is unrelated is when I try to do a make rpm on the same sources. The error received is: -ta: unknown option make: *** [rpm] Error 1 Does anyone know if this option t was in a previous version of rpm as the makefile is passing this option to rpm. If so what is the new option to replace it. My rpm version is 4.1. -- Best regards, Wayne Storey Creation Technology Solutions Mobile: 0404 224 875 ABN:30 638 407 783 -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug

Re: [SLUG] Syncing with Win2k Server
Looks like its exactly what I'm after. I can mount the remote directory then sync the mounted directory with a local directory in my home so I don't need to install anything on the server. Cheers.

Re: [SLUG] How to patch a kernel
For make rpm, has anyone had experience with this going horribly wrong? I had two instances in my grub.conf to boot the same kernel (one passed some options to the kernel the other not). After running rpm -Uhv on the new kernel rpm it complained that it could not find a valid kernel in my grub.conf and deleted the two existing instances. It also for some unknown reason deleted the previous kernel and the modules from /lib/modules/2.4.18-3 related to that kernel. I was lucky I was able to boot the new kernel (2.4.18-3custon) via the command line in grub. On Tue, 2002-10-01 at 15:08, Mike MacCana wrote: Howdy. The best way to do this is to patch yoru kernel, run `make menuconfig' then run `make rpm'. This will create proper Linux packages (RPMs) for your kernel, which you can then install like any application.

Re: [SLUG] How to patch a kernel
I might be wrong about this and someone can correct me if I am, but I believe that redhat make changes to the kernel source hence the -3 after the kernel number. You will need to get the source from kernel.org and then patch that. Or just get the latest kernel from there.

RE: [SLUG] Clevo D630S - sound
Finally got sound working on the SiS 7012. Downloading the latest ACPI kernel patch (http://sourceforge.net/projects/acpi) and the 2.4.18 kernel (http://www.kernel.org) and compiling with ACPI support and no APM support seems to do the trick. Don't know if turning on APM will stuff things up. In regards to your comment on the SiS 650 video chip-set, this works out of the box on RedHat 7.3.

I don't use redhat personally and never usually do, but always tend to try and snag the iso's in some way. the iso's I have currently are all fine and have been installed by some members here at work no problem. If anyone is willing, I'd be happy to burn a copy of CD3 for those who really want it. I work in North Sydney at NCR Australia, so if this helps you can collect otherwise, a cd in a self made postage pack with some return stamps would be fine, and I could burn and send back to you.
