Slack, new kernel, problems
 

hello. i have successfully compiled 2.6.9 kernel on my slack 10.0. everything seems to work fine , but what about these messages:
1.FATAL: module agpgart not found
2. FATAL OSS module not found (my sound works fine)
3. I can't install nvidia drivers ( even patched ones)
any help????thanx

successfully ??? :) very close.....
1) look in /lib/modules/2.6.9/kernel/drivers/char/agp if it exists. if not, add it in the .config -file as a module.( and do a " make modules && modules_install ")
2) i've had that error too and i don't know where it came from( never gave trouble )
i guess you're using alsa so if sound is oke , don't worry.
3) i've noticed that yesterday, so if anyone knows an answer......

Hi.

2) Try compiling in OSS emulation. It's probably an OSS app trying to access /dev/dsp.

3) I'm running a vanilla 2.6.9 kernel with the latest nVidia drivers (6629), so it can be done. I couldn't get the driver to compile with 2.6.10-rc2, though.
