Hi Tiago !

A little out of subject note to Ruaudel, have you ever tried running
NVidia drivers with the kernel you built? I have and surprisingly it
freezes when the server starts, any ideas on why this is happening? I've
been browsing google on why the _bundled_ kernel does not work, and
that's because of 4KSTACK enabled in the kernel. Did you enable it in
your kernel?

  

Sorry but as I have a matrox G400, so I didn't notice any problem with 
nvidia. If this option is really enabled, so it should be the case in 
the original kernel too, because I retrieved the FC2 kernel options 
before only adding those necessary for a PPPoA speedtouch modem. All 
this to say that I believe I did it like this but maybe I added this 
option unintentionally.

Thank you developers for your great work on speedtouch drivers and thank
you Ruaudel for your RPM's :)

  

You're welcome ;)

Have a nice day,

Fred

Yes it is on the original kernel, nvidia users are having troubles with
FC2. But the problem is on nvidia's side. As soon as i have some spare
time i'll try to rebuild the kernel and send you the spec, if you want.
Are you interested in bundling br2684ctl in your RPM's list? I can
create an RPM with it.

Absolutely, if it can help more people, it is always welcome !

Personaly I don't need pppoe but as I said above, I'm always interrested 
in sharing useful stuff. And it is always better to centralize the work. 
If you do it, please send me what users have to do to make it work 
(which RPM needed for pppoe modem and which configuration they have to 
do after the installation) so I can update the little documentation on 
my webpage for pppoe users.

Best regards,

Fred

One more thing, I don't know if you have already rebuilt a RedHat/FC 
kernel, but if you don't, I can give you this advice to make you win 
some time. In order to have a working kernel, you have to set the 
architecture you need. By default, on intel platform, the arch is i386 
and in the default spec, the rpmbuild program compile nothing, so you 
have to use the following command to set the good arch (eg: i686) :

rpmbuild -ba --target=i686 kernel-2.6.spec

If you need more advice on this, feel free to ask me, because I had lots 
of problem to manage to build it correctly so if I can share my 
experience, I will be glad to.

good luck,

Fred
