Don't use the KERNEL that comes with redhat instead u download the latest kernel from http://www.kernel.org and try to compile, before that please update u r gcc compilers. -NIlesh ----- Original Message ----- From: Mahesh Gharat Sent: Thursday, October 18, 2001 11:43 AM To: linuxers(a)mm.ilug-bom.org.in Subject: Re: Re: Re: [ILUG-BOM] kernel recompilation problem I was trying this on the Kernel sources that comes with Redahat distribution(Default).Is that a problem?Should I download the new sources and try again?One thing I should tell you that I have only installed the Linux kernel and it's sources i.e.the minimum system.Will it give dependencies problem since there are no other packages and libraries?

>Try running make modules_install again > >also, read through /usr/src/linux/.config to see if anything is >configured as a module. Well, .config does not show anything configured as module. It either shows y or not set. But I have set a lot of modules as M, for that matter the .config does not show up that RTL8139 is selected at all. Seems like whatever I select as module is neither selected as part of kernel nor in the modules. In the /lib/modules/2.4.12/kernel/drivers/net just see one module dummy.o and thats it. Infact whenever I run make modules_install, I see messages nothing to be done for modules_install as it enters various directories in the src tree. Its somewhere I'm making a blunder but cant figure it out.

>In network devices, enable Ethernet 10/100, under ethernet, enable >RTL8139 as a module. Yes I enabled it as a module. But the problem is after rebooting when I see /lib/modules/2.4.12/kernel/drivers/net/dummy.o and thats it. I dont see 8139too.o. Infact I can just see a directory net in drivers. Whereas in my old kernel /lib/modules/2.4.2-12/kernel/drivers, I can see many modules. many of those not required though. But in the new kernel modules I dont see anything other than net. Not even fs, probably that is why my windows partitions also cannot be mounted, says not supported by kernel. I guess there is some mistake I might be doing but can't figure it out. Do I ned to make any changes to /etc/modules.conf. The entry for 8139too is already there. Do I have to kmod, modprobe etc before rebooting the first time. PLease help.

mouse not responding in KDE
by Parul Mathur 17 Oct '01

17 Oct '01

Hello, I have a Microsoft Intellimouse (2 buttons) which is serially connected to DOS COM1. Whenever I run KDE, the mouse does not respond but it does change its icon depending on what is positioned underneath it. For example, while on the desktop, it looks like a pointer but when xterm is running, it changes to an "I" bar. The relevant portion of my X configuration file is as follows: ------------ /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 ------------- # File generated by anaconda. Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "Anaconda Configured" Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0 InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer" InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard" EndSection <snip> Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Mouse0" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "Microsoft" Option "Device" "/dev/ttyS0" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" Option "Emulate3Buttons" "yes" EndSection ------------------------------------------------- The /etc/sysconfig/mouse file is as follows: ----------------/etc/sysconfig/mouse ---------------- FULLNAME="Generic - 2 Button Mouse (serial)" MOUSETYPE="Microsoft" XEMU3="yes" XMOUSETYPE="Microsoft" ------------------------------------------------- Please suggest some solution. Thanks. Parul Mathur
