2.1.90 is the first 2.1 kernel I've tried installing. So far it's pretty disappointing on my system, as it tends to lock up within a few minutes of booting. I would be happy to provide more information if I could figure out how to get it; usually the lockups freeze the system so hard that only hitting the reset button produces a response, and the couple of times I was able to type things or switch VCs on the way down I didn't think to hit one of the magic keys to see if it would tell me where it was wedged. This system is running fine under 2.0.33. If someone does take an interest in this I'd also be happy to provide whatever hardware and configuration details that you request. I sort of suspect it's related to SCSI oddities; under 2.0.33 I have to boot my system with "BusLogic=0,1" to prevent SCSI timeouts under heavy I/O on my BusLogic 545C. Strangely, lilo seems to be very good at triggering catatonia. It always gets through the initial fscks on reboot fine, though. The only other problem I've seen in the brief times 2.1.90 was running for me is that the new sound driver exhibits a behavior where processes that are writing to /dev/audio don't seem to exit when the sound is done. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.rutgers.edu | ||||||||||||
