YES

what is that ? i always build the kernel the same way and did so successfully many times on Gentoo and experimented with VIA SATA and PATA drivers too. i am not being harsh i am just SHOCKED. what exactly you mean ?

ok, i always do this: "make menuconfig, make, make modules_install". how about getting a the latest stable kernel from here: http://www.kernel.org/ , makeing a symbolic link of its source to "/usr/src/linux" and then compile it on CRUX 2.3 ? will that solve my problem ? -- http://arnuld.blogspot.com/

Hi Arnuld, This will be my final reply on this list to you for a while. CRUX is meant for experience users, and while we're trying to help everyone including newbies on this list, you've posted so many beginner questions here lately that I think you should do some more research on linux and linux distributions before posting here again. Just like the distribution isn't targetted at beginners, this list isn't meant for linux beginners; your kernel problems are in no way CRUX related, they're just exposed by the fact that CRUX doesn't come with a kernel package. I see that you're very hard working to find good information, so you're probably on the right way. On Tue, May 08, 2007 at 03:51:32 -0400, arnuld wrote: the user.

will that solve my problem ? Probably not, but really, what kept you from trying? The handbook states: http://crux.nu/Main/Handbook2-3#ntoc55
"The kernel source, which is found in /usr/src/linux-2.6.20.3/ is not installed using pkgadd. If you decide to upgrade your kernel you can safely do so by manually replacing the kernel source with a newer version" So if you decide to update your kernel to try to fix the error, go ahead. The decision is really up to you, just like choosing a newer kernel version than the one supplied on the ISO. No one's holding your hand, sorry. If you're not ready yet to build your own kernels, there's a number of possibilities: - choose a distro with kernel packages (optionally study it if you want to switch to custom kernels at a later point in time; otherwise just enjoy the music and Bruce Lee videos :-) - use some other distro's kernel (including configuration and patches) on CRUX - learn more about kernels by reading the VAST amount of information available online; the problem here is that there's also lots of wrong information outthere, so choose your sources wisely - keep building new kernels until it works - find some local linux guru to help you Good luck, Johannes -- Johannes Winkelmann mailto:jw@smts.ch Zurich, Switzerland http://jw.smts.ch

"make menuconfig" seems much easier as i only need to know what drivers my hardwares use, e.g. VIA PATA etc. and some extra things like "low latency", "MTRR" etc.

- choose a distro with kernel packages (optionally study it if you want to switch to custom kernels at a later point in time; otherwise just enjoy the music and Bruce Lee videos :-)
- use some other distro's kernel (including configuration and patches) on CRUX
- learn more about kernels by reading the VAST amount of information available online; the problem here is that there's also lots of wrong information outthere, so choose your sources wisely

i am the only GNU OS user in my area, nobody uses GNU at least, not within 100 KM area of my home :-(. people FEAR when i say: " i use GNU (or Linux or UNIX)". now next is JUST for FUN: ----------------------------------------------- some time ago my SAMSUNG monitor had some problem, i called their technical support and they were talking to me from MUMBAI, one of the biggest cities in India. Technical Support Person(Engineers, actually) said he will solve my problem and this is how the conversation went: SAMSUNG: Sir, "right-click" on Desktop and select "properties". ME: there are no properties. SAMSUNG Sir, it is not possible, look carefully, it is there. ME: "NO" SAMSUNGL: your Windows is corrupt, trouble you reported is not in Monitor, it is in you Windows, please reinstall it. and there i smiled :-) ME: Sir, i use UNIX ;-) that time i used FreeBSD. he was blown-up, he remained silent for a long time and finally: SAMSUNG: Sir, I don't know anything about UNIX. ME: what exactly you are trying to do ? SAMSUNG: i want to change the refresh rate of Monitor. ME: child-games, you could have told me earlier that you want to play child's game. that is easy. (of course, i edited "/etc/X11/xorg.conf") SAMSUNG: please tell me how to do that ? now here comes the intersting part, i told/explained him how i chanegd refresh rate. SAMSUNG: oh....ah....oh... these were the last 3 words he said, wandering in confusion, he never understood what exactly "/etc/X11/xorg.conf" is for . ----------------------------------------------------- thanks -- http://arnuld.blogspot.com/

No, i don't think so. 'Proper' means that you need a Kernel without any errors. A Kernel which compiles and works 'clean / proper'. regards Hannes

Hannes, when i compile my kernel on CRUX, it never gave me any error because if there is an error it will stop compiling but it compiles successfully.

You have written some mails ago that your sound works with gentoo. Do you use the same Config? Or have you allready tried to use your gentoo-kernel with crux? Maybe the simplest way, if you allways failed with building a new kernel. Hannes
