2.6-test1 on ppc?

Anyone managed to compile this, or know what the status is (supposed?) to be? It fails very badly on my config, for a string of issues. First of all, ppc (or powerpc)/time.c had dumb troubles, something like: long num_nsecs; and then, a few lines later: int num_nsecs; Fixing that worked

benh kernel build error

Hi all I'm trying to build my own 2.4.21-ben2 kernel, and it seems I've messed up my kernel .config file that I edited for the build. The file is here: http://www.geocities.com/wolfgangpfeiffer/config.txt The kernel builds without any error AFAICS if I don't change the default .config file as

XKB and spanish keyboard

Hi, My factory default BW G3 spanish keyboard is not supported by the XFree86 installer. I solve this manually loading a .Xmodmap created from scratch. However, my XFree86 from unstable uses something called XKB, so my .Xmodmap is not automatically loaded at startup. How can I tweak the XKB

Solved :) [was: benh kernel build error]

OK. Kernel is ready :))) After the first error in my previous message I got 2 more of them. My solution to this was to find the kernel compile options that I thought were related to the errors and unset them. I'm not a coder, so this was all I could do. Following the errors how they
