Hi there, I have just switched to Gentoo Linux (2.4.20 Kernel) and I have downloaded a dripkg installation install.sh script. Unfortunately trying to install provides me with the following listing in the dri.log. I have emerged xfree-drm but still no joy. Apparently it would seem that I have not got CONFIG_X86_CMPXCHG enabled in the kernel. How would I find out if this is true (I greped /proc/config for cmpxchg and got nothing at all in response) and then how would I go about doing it.
Any more info you need I will glee-fully provide! Anyways, I'm really stuck now and I'm running out of coffee so I'd really appreciate some help. Thankyou for your time and efforts, Owen Thomson. http://www.owenshouse.net make -f Makefile.linux DRM_MODULES=tdfx.o modules make[1]: Entering directory `/root/dripkg/drm' make -C /lib/modules/2.4.20-gentoo-r6/build SUBDIRS=`pwd` DRMSRCDIR=`pwd` modules make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.20-gentoo-r6' make -C /root/dripkg/drm CFLAGS="-D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux-2.4.20-gentoo-r6/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -Wno-trigraphs -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -fno-common -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 -march=i386 -DMODULE -DMODVERSIONS -include /usr/src/linux-2.4.20-gentoo-r6/include/linux/modversions.h" MAKING_MODULES=1 modules make[3]: Entering directory `/root/dripkg/drm' Makefile:264: *** CONFIG_X86_CMPXCHG needs to be enabled in the kernel.
