Hello, i have tried to update my kernel from 2.6.24-gentoo-r5 to 2.6.15-gentoo-r1. Now when i boot up, my splash-theme starts a few seconds after the message "OK, now booting the kernel" as before when it started immediately after this message. Ok but the main problem is, before starting up gdm the system hangs and i can do nothing else anymore. Without nvidia-driver installed i can log in in textmode so i think it is a problem with the nvidia-driver and or splashutils and fbsplash.
For your information, to update my kernel i used my old config-file with make menuconfig which shows me the following output make menuconfig HOSTCC scripts/basic/fixdep HOSTCC scripts/basic/split-include HOSTCC scripts/basic/docproc HOSTCC scripts/kconfig/conf.o HOSTCC scripts/kconfig/kxgettext.o HOSTCC scripts/kconfig/mconf.o SHIPPED scripts/kconfig/zconf.tab.c SHIPPED scripts/kconfig/lex.zconf.c SHIPPED scripts/kconfig/zconf.hash.c HOSTCC scripts/kconfig/zconf.tab.o HOSTLD scripts/kconfig/mconf HOSTCC scripts/lxdialog/checklist.o HOSTCC scripts/lxdialog/inputbox.o HOSTCC scripts/lxdialog/lxdialog.o HOSTCC scripts/lxdialog/menubox.o HOSTCC scripts/lxdialog/msgbox.o HOSTCC scripts/lxdialog/textbox.o HOSTCC scripts/lxdialog/util.o HOSTCC scripts/lxdialog/yesno.o HOSTLD scripts/lxdialog/lxdialog scripts/kconfig/mconf arch/i386/Kconfig # # using defaults found in .config # .config:1317:warning: trying to assign nonexistent symbol FB_SOFT_CURSOR .config:1426:warning: trying to assign nonexistent symbol USB_BLUETOOTH_TTY *** End of Linux kernel configuration. *** Execute 'make' to build the kernel or try 'make help'. Maybe it has something to do with this error .config:1317:warning: trying to assign nonexistent symbol FB_SOFT_CURSOR Any suggestions concering this problem?
