Problem installing Potato on Inspiron8000
Hello, I tried to install Potato on my new laptop but I'm having troubles. The system hangs during the first reboot (after the install of the base system) just after this message: "Starting the network SuperServer : inetd" (or something like that I don 't remember exactly). Could anyone help please? Should I try Woody? Thanks in advance, Emilien Arino

I installed the 2.4.3 kernel and and the patched debs for pcmcia-cs, but now, I'm having troubles with loading the moulde for my ethernet adapter. My laptop has the 3com 10/100 ethernet + Modem combo. I tried the 3c575_cb.o but I get the following messages: 3c575_cb.o : unresolved symbol register_driver_Ra8664c22 3c575_cb.o : unresolved symbol unregister_driver_R9e54a5d8 I don't get any error messages when I load this module after cb_enabler.o, but 3c575_cb.o stays unused when I check lsmod. This what shows lsmod before at startuo: Module Used by ds 2 i82365 2 pcmcia_core 0 [ds i82365] Could anyone help me please?

I recompiled it on another computer running Potato using the following commands: make-kpkg clean su root make-kpkg --revision=custom kernel_image Then I installed the new kernel ant the patched pcmcias debs (included in Dell.tgz) but at reboot, I get tons of: depmod : unresolved symbol in /lib/modules/2.4.3/pcmcia/3c574.o ... ... (one for each module listed in /lib/modules/2.4.3/pcmcia) There are also a few modprobe :modprobe : Can't locate module nls_ cp437.0 ... But the ethernet card works. Is it because I didn't run : make modules ? Do I have to run : make modules even if I use make-kpkg?

i8000 : Can't build pcmcia modules
I'm trying to compile pcmcia modules for a 2.4.3 kernel I built for my Inspiron 8000. I compiled the 2.4.3 kernel (which is in /usr/src/linux) and then went in /usr/src/modules/pcmcia-cs and executed dpkg-buildpackage. I get this error: rm -f build build-modules test -f man/pcmcia.5 -a -f debian/rules umask 022; /usr/bin/make DEB_MOD=yes all make[2]: Entering directory '/usr/src/modules/pcmcia-cs' /bin/sh: -c: line 1: syntax error near unexpected token ';' /bin/sh: -c line 1: 'if [ "" ]; then @set -e ; for d in ; do /usr/bin/make -C $d ; done; fi' make[2]: *** [all] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory '/usr/src/modules/pcmcia-cs' make[1]: *** [build-modules] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory '/usr/src/modules/pcmcia-cs' make: *** [binary-arch] Error 2 I tried other methods I have found in several README and FAQ files included in the kernel and pcmcia-cs sources but I allways get this error message. What do I need to compile the modules (except the kernel and pcmcia-cs sources and gcc)? Could anyone help me please? Thanks in advance, Emilien Arino
XFree4 on Dell i8000
Hi, I'm having troubles running XFree on my Dell i8000 ( Ati Rage M4, 15,4" UXGA display). I managed to start an X server but it's not satisfying. Any help appreciated. Thanks, Emilien Arino
