Please help me--a problem about compiling kernel
by Leo 02 Aug '05

02 Aug '05

Hi, everyone. I have installed F.C.3 on VMware successfully. Now I want to compile my own kernel-2.6.10. I have tried many times. At first, I could compile and install it successfully but could not boot from it, I guess I missed something. Sometime when I compile the kernel, it displayed no enough space, so I add a new IDE harddisk (emulated by VMware), mount it and it works well. But I can not compile kernel now. When I run "make modules_install", after many lines "INSTALL ******", it will stop at the line "if -r System.map if" (sorry I can not remember the detail clearly), and the OS becomes no responding, I have to reboot it. If I skip "make modules_install", just "make install", it is the same result. I have tried to re-install FC3, the problem is still there. Please tell me what's up? How to fix it? Thanks. My harddisk config: /dev/hda1 ext3 / 4.0G /dev/hdb1 ext3 /usr 3.9G /dev/hdb2 swap 0.1G

sound problems!!!
by Jeffrey Ross 02 Aug '05

I've been trying unsuccessfully to get the sound to work on my IBM Thinkpad 600X with FC4. Sound did work on FC3. an lsmod shows the following sound related devices loaded: (lsmod | grep snd) snd_cs46xx 93097 1 gameport 18633 2 snd_cs46xx snd_rawmidi 30305 1 snd_cs46xx snd_ac97_codec 75961 1 snd_cs46xx snd_seq_dummy 3653 0 snd_seq_oss 37057 0 snd_seq_midi_event 9153 1 snd_seq_oss snd_seq 62289 5 snd_seq_dummy,snd_seq_oss,snd_seq_midi_event snd_seq_device 8781 4 snd_rawmidi,snd_seq_dummy,snd_seq_oss,snd_seq snd_pcm_oss 51185 0 snd_mixer_oss 17857 2 snd_pcm_oss snd_pcm 100169 3 snd_cs46xx,snd_ac97_codec,snd_pcm_oss snd_timer 33605 2 snd_seq,snd_pcm snd 57157 10 snd_cs46xx,snd_rawmidi,snd_ac97_codec,snd_seq_oss,snd_seq,snd_seq_device,snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_pcm,snd_timer soundcore 10913 2 snd snd_page_alloc 9669 2 snd_cs46xx,snd_pcm I'm sure it something stupid that needs to be done but I have hit a dead end. Suggestions?? Thanks.. Jeff

Re: I think I need a sound/ALSA guru.

Hi; I have posted here a couple of times with sound problems and received no reply. I may be wrong but I think my sound problems are basically installation problems and I also think they are 2 or 3 different problems intermixed. I have been working on this problem for over 6 weeks and don't seem to be any closer to a solution than when I started. My problems are: 1) My event sounds all have scratchy or hissy backgrounds 2) My /dev/*(sound) permissions seem all screwed up 3) All the modules seem to be there (except one for synthesizer?? -- which is required in WindowsXP) 4) Most but not all of my sound programs can't find my sound card. 5) tvtime switches to 'line-in' even though it is set for PCM. 6) system-config-soundcard plays the test sample but has the worst distortion of all. 7) and more and more ..... I have googled, checked the ALSA site, checked all the Fedora (including bugzilla) and Linux sites I can find. I have noticed several posted ALSA problems similar to mine but seldom any posted solutions. I have reams of data from lsmode, /dev/*, /proc/, PAM, /boot/config-2.6 etc. that I will share if anyone thinks they can help. I am using P4 on a Intel 82850 motherboard, Ensoniq 5889 AudioPCI sound card using the snd_ens1371 driver and an ATI TV Wonder tuner. Also listed is Brooktree Bt878 video capture and Bt878 audio capture. My Linux is Fedora Core 4. I have sound -- sorta -- but my frustration level is climbing daily. I can't figure out if I am doing something so stupid that no one can bother replying, or because no one else knows what I am talking about or because I am asking in the wrong place? A reply to this last question alone would be a big help Regards Bill

FC installation doesn't work
by Juan 02 Aug '05

Thank you very much for your answers gentlemen. The problem was solved changing the video card. Scott's e-mail arrived just a tad late when I had already formatted the hd. I believe that that is the answer. The video card I had was a Trident. Thanks again. Juan

I did not reinstall mozilla.i386 since I do not see why I should neet it. Maybe some program will complain about that but I can reinstall it later. "yum install libtool" also succeeded. Thanks for going through all the effort to solve my problem!

Re: [ILUG-BOM] 2 hard disks and formatting

Hi Thanks for the replies. I also ran knoppix 3.8.1 on my Pc. From Knoppix i ran Qt parted and it showed all the partitions on D2(hdb) Also I could access the files from knoppix. I tried fdisk and cfdisk from Knoppix console and all showed me the partitions on hdb and the size as 40gb Earlier when I tried to access hdb(D2) from Slack 10.1 by running cfdisk it gave a fatal error. Why is this difference in the 3 programs Thanks and Regards Ninad

QLogic HBA and max_luns

hello, fedora-list. 1. I have Fedora Core (2.6.11-1.1369_FC4smp) installed from scratch. 2. I have QLogic HBA QLA2340 (new BIOS installed) 3.

What's wrong with me? It's funny - but then I try to install Win2k (only for test!!!) it seems to work. It found all LUNs - so configurations of Hitachi and HBA are correct. -- WBR, Karasiov mailto:karasiov@infobox.ru
