kerneld error message on startup

After compiling a kernel (2.2.17) for the first time, I received a startup message indicating that I was using kerneld and almost certainly didn't want to. I don't know how I turned it on, so I don't know how to turn it off. I have enabled kmod in the kernel, but don't understand how to set it

AWE 32 not recognized

After compiling a kernel (2.2.17) for the first time, the startup sequence initialized Soundblaster at io 220 and 330, irq 1 and 5 (which is what it runs at under Windows), but then said AWE 32 not recognized. I still don't have sound. (Compiled SB and PNP into the kernel.) I'm trying to avoid

unresolved symbols error messages on startup

After compiling a kernel (2.2.17) for the first time, I received a string of error messages on module autodetect: Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules (lists several modules). I don't have any modules compiled into the kernel (although I do have the possibility of module dependency enabled).

first shot at compiling a kernel

I tried compiling a kernel (2.2.17) for the first time. It compiled, rebooted, and generally worked okay, but there were a few problems 1) I received a startup message indicating that I was using kerneld and almost certainly didn't want to. I don't know how I turned it on, so I don't know how

Missing /lib/modules/2.2.17 file

In the process of compiling a new kernel, I renamed my /lib/modules/2.2.17 file. I won't take you along the convoluted process that made me think that that was a good idea. Anyway ... I can't boot up. I keep getting an endless series of messages that /lib/modules/2.2.17 can't be accessed

Re: SiS 5597/5598 Video Card

what I lost and what I need to reinstall? Sorry for stupid newbie questions. I'm trying to read the manual, but it seems you need to know the commands you're looking for before you look them up. Keith -Original Message- From: USM Bish [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Keith Cecile Schooley [EMAIL

Installing XFree86 3.3.6

I installed a new set of Debian CDs recently, only to have anXious not recognize my video card, a SiS 5597/5598. After a little research, I found that XFree86 3.3.6 should support the SiS 5597/5598 card, so I downloaded the files from them. Then, on trying to install, I received a message saying

SiS 5597/5598 Video Card

I recently installed Potato (first time using Linux). I have a SiS 5597/5598 video card, which anXious did not recognize. The installation manual (Section 2.1.2.3) says that the Debian CDs ship with XFree86 3.3.6 http://www.debian.org/releases/2.2/i386/ch-hardware-req.en.html#s2.2 ) XFree86's

Password problems

This is going to sound like an asinine problem, but here goes ... My machine seems to have forgotten my password. Yes, I said my machine. Not me. I've had it burned into my consciousness, through booting up about a hundred times (successfully) today. I finally got a problem with getting my
