Hi, I did correct the config /dev/pmud, so maybe I'm missing devfs with the new kernel. I'll check on that.
I'm sure I am running pbbuttonsd because the start script would give an error initially. It couldn't insert the module since in benh kernels these things are not modules but built in the kernel. Once I eliminated that from the script it ran merrily. Now that I think about, I really should compile the kernel, it will be easier to do the debugging. Two questions: a) does the benh kernel have devfs at all? or is it just a matter of enabling it at config time? b) do you have the .config resulting from your compile? that way I don't have to go guessing ppc options. I've only compiled intel kernels before. Thanks, Platy On Wed, 2002-07-31 at 13:49, Ben Reser wrote: > On Wed, Jul 31, 2002 at 11:41:44AM -0600, Vincent Danen wrote: > > Hmmm... you're right.
