Re: [expert] Make xconfig doesn't work in new kernel
This patch fixes it: (I posted them on qa at 2003-06-18) http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/attachment.cgi?id=516action=view - changes incorrect define_mbool = define_bool and while you are at it ... get theese two also: http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/attachment.cgi?id=517action=view - removes menu duplicate (if ... fi) from drivers/char/drm/Config.in http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/attachment.cgi?id=518action=view - remove duplicate 'source sound/usb/Config.in' in file sound/Config.in Regards Thomas I solved the problem by installing the tk/tcl rpm packages and xconfig works. Maybe this should be a dependency for the kernel source? This is for the standard kernel that comes with 9.1 (2.4.21-0.13mdk I think...). I've got the splash screen up and running (I left out initrd support) but am pretty stumped by my power problem. Using the standard kernel, on the command halt the computer shuts down and powers down. ACPI is disabled in the bios and doesn't effect this behaviour (due to the fact acpi doesn't work for my via chipset appollo 133 and 686a southbridge) it still powers down. However in my beautfiul new optimised slimmed down kernel (its been on the atkins diet) everything works apart from the computer powering down. I even hear the HD spin down, but no power off. It is obviously a missing module in the kernel, but I haven't touched the standard advanced power management options (turned off acpi support, also tried with it on, and still no effect.). Under one kernel it works, under the other it doesn't. Any clues you can give me for other modules required to allow apm to turn off the computer? I can post the .config file as an email attachment if you so wish. Cheers Huw Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com
[expert] Make xconfig doesn't work in new kernel
Has anybody else tried to recompile the new Mandrake 9.1 kernel. I am trying to apply the win4lin patches and recompile it for Athlon and make xconfig is dumping out with: rm -f include/asm ( cd include ; ln -sf asm-i386 asm) if [ -f .need_mrproper ]; then \ rm .need_mrproper; \ make mrproper; \ make preconfig; \ fi make -C scripts kconfig.tk make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.21-0.18mdk/scripts' cat header.tk ./kconfig.tk ./tkparse ../arch/i386/config.in kconfig.tk drivers/net/Config.in: 193: unknown command make[1]: *** [kconfig.tk] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.21-0.18mdk/scripts' make: *** [xconfig] Error 2 Can anybody confirm this, or is it just me? -- Greg Hi, I'm not strictly speaking an expert, but currently have the same problem, but with an interesting twist. Firstly installed linux with the default mandrake selection for kde and mandrake system files. Loaded up kernel sources and played around with kernel settings making several new kernels using xconfig ( only problems I had were, couldn't get the boot splash to compile in, and wierd power problem where atx psu wouldn't turn off with new kernel, but would with the default). Anyway, decided to wipe everything and do a miminmum reinstall with reiserfs, and hand picked packages including the kernel source. System works fine but now when I run xconfig to make a new kernel I have this problem. I think its due to a missing rpm, as it worked on the same machine in one installation, but not the other. I had a book from the local library to guide me 1st time round and I think it shed some light in this area, but its gone back now. Will carry on searching and post a fix when (if?) i find out what i did correct first time round. Cheers Huw Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com

I just vi .config and search for asm or ASM every time I find it I comment the line out with a #. Then it compiles. Seems that ASM can only compile on boxes that need/use it I guess. OR there is something else that needs a yes or module that isn't obvious. I got it done by using make oldconfig, but I suppose it should work. I also just got dumped out of menuconfig when I tried to enter the ALSA configuration. I suppose I should report both of these to vdanen. -- Greg Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?
