I have set up a public service web page at

I have a SuSe 2.4.7 system.
I've downloaded the 2.4.21 Kernel from kernel.org and applied the IBM
patches and performed 'make menuconfig', 'make dep', and 'make image'.
'make modules' is giving me trouble. I'm getting the following error:
gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux-2.4.21/include -Wall
Lindows Inc. on Wednesday changed the name of its Lindows OS operating
system to Linspire, responding to a federal judge's refusal to halt
Microsoft Inc.'s trademark infringement lawsuits outside the United

Yes, qeth.o is the correct module to be using for a VSWITCH. You'll also
need some entries in /etc/chandev.conf for the driver to initialize

Yes, that's correct. So, what happens if you do a modprobe qeth command?
You should see some things on the VM console as to what is detected and used
(or not).

Has anyone installed the latest Bastille on their Linux/390?
Does anyone have a source RPM for it?

This would not be on a SUSE system until someone wants to buy SUSE. My

I'm frustrated about the placement of the AF_IUCV protocol module.

Typically, NFS will not cross mount points. Some NFS daemons will let you
do that by specifying specific options (don't remember offhand which), or
otherwise you could just export all the mounted images one by one (more work
of course).

After you updated /etc/chandev.conf did you reboot the system or echo some
