You *probably* will not have to
Oh, that could be a problem, I didnt get it from debian, I download it
from xfree86.org . Do you think I will have to reinstall the whole system
to use 3.3.6 ? that would be a nightmare, meaning I have to start from
scratch again?
Any more light?
thank you

I have Dell Inspiron 7500 +SXGA (1400x1050) with potato installed. The LCD
is working just fine but can anybody point me to a source of information
or give some advice how I can configure external monitor to work under X
(3.3.6).
In console it works OK.
Thanks,

Hi,
I just upgraded my xfree86 3.3.2 from debian with 3.3.6 from XFree86.
But after installing the latter, I can no longer use my existing
window-managers. I had blackbox (my favorite), olvwm, etc. Now, I am
only presented with a few stupid xterms which are much larger than my
640x480 screen. I co
Well, actually what I did was this:
- install kernel-source-2.2.14-14 and pcmcia-source-3.1.8-9
- make config
- make-kpkg --flavour sound kernel_image modules_image
At this point, I had the debs on /usr/src.
Install the debs, edit lilo, run lilo, reboot...
Then I had problems.

I did the depmod and start--didn't know about update-modules (why
update them? they're brand new) but I'll try it, thanks!

Hi, does anybody compiles his own kernel with
flavor around here? When I did this, I had
the following problems:
- The modules go to /lib/modules/`uname -r`-flavor
but the module loader searches on /lib/modules/`uname -r`
- The cardmgr complains the pcmcia modules are not for this
kernel, and
Hi, did you try this?
update-modules ; depmod -a ; /etc/init.d/pcmcia start
This might solve -- or might not.

Use Magic Sysrq key, read doc in kernel doc.
for example
MagicSysrq-s sync
MagicSysrq-u umount
MagicSysrq-b boot
