Please note that I have already tried http://www.ubuntuforums.org/ but the folks seem to be confused like me (regarding this particular issue). More specifically, there is confusion between the following statement: http://packages.debian.org/stable/devel/kernel-patch-2.4-fasttraks150 And the fact that my system shows the following: ~> lsmod | grep promise sata_promise 12516 8 libata 83440 1 sata_promise scsi_mod 145960 6 sr_mod,sbp2,sg,sd_mod,sata_promise,libata Do you know what the best place to ask such question? Thanks! Alex P.S. I didn't browse menuconfig, because I am not there yet. It's like the chicken-and-the-egg situation: I am using Ubuntu which conceptually exempts me from the need to compile kernel modules and thus menuconfig is not even installed by default. Since (thanks to Arjan's reply) I am pretty sure now that the driver is included in the distribution, I hope that no compilation is needed. P.S.2 If I discover something that IMHO points to a bug in the kernel, where do I post it? ____________________________________________________________________________________ Get your email and see which of your friends are online - Right on the New Yahoo.com (http://www.yahoo.com/preview) - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ | ||||||||||||
