Greetings,

I'm working to update my Pentium 133 firewall from RedHat 5.2 to Mandrake 
8.2 with SNF.  As the standard 2.4.18-6mdksecure kernel doesn't run on a 
plain old Pentium, I have rebuilt the kernel and can boot the machine with it.

However, gpm complains:

        May 14 13:03:03 nic /usr/sbin/gpm: gpm startup succeeded
        May 14 13:03:03 nic /usr/sbin/gpm[1627]: oops() invoked from gpm.c(988)
        May 14 13:03:03 nic /usr/sbin/gpm[1627]: /dev/mouse: No such device or address

The complaint seems to be processor related since I can boot the same 
kernel (from the same hard drive) if I put the drive in a Pentium III (450 
mhz) machine.

Anybody know what's wrong here?  Is is a cpu architecture issue, as I think?

Thankd.

David
