Hi; I downloaded CVS-latest last week (the last item I have in the
changelog was dated jun 11) and compiled it against my 2.4.4 kernel (it
took a while, but I finally figured out the problem was that my
/usr/include/linux wasn't the correct symlink and had an out of date
batch of headers), and everything seems to work until the point of
actually running the code. The GUI window appears, puts a cursor marker
in the top left of the screen, and then, no matter which of the test
kernels I'm running, nothing happens. I'm fairly sure that at least
some of them are supposed to produce output :-)
Some bits of my system setup, the config files and stderr messages of my
last attempt at running it follow. Anyone got any ideas what's going
on?
