Well, now I have just finished compiling a 2.6.12-rc3-mm2 kernel for my PowerPC machine and here is the time it took to compile it (*after* the sources were already uncompressed and I was using a good enough .config file so that make-kpgk made all the work by itself): - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - real 87m53.845s user 72m22.279s sys 11m12.328s - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - I guess that with times like this, my request for 168-pin 5V EDO DIMM cards (going to the trash or otherwise unused) still stands. :-/ Thanks, Rogério Brito. -- Rogério Brito : [EMAIL PROTECTED] : http://www.ime.usp.br/~rbrito Homepage of the algorithms package : http://algorithms.berlios.de Homepage on freshmeat: http://freshmeat.net/projects/algorithms/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
