I'm new to Slackware and have little experience with Linux.
I'm trying to install the 2.6.5 kernel (linux-2.6.5.tar.bz2) on Slackware 10.2.
My first attempt was "make oldconfig" (everythings used to work), "make", I did a manual install in /boot, "make modules" and "make modules_install" , copied related files and made proper links in /boot.
I could boot, reinstall nvidia, mount my cdrom, files system and my usb mouse was working, but the soundcard couldn't be detected and the network didn't work; could not ping my router.
So, I've done; "make mrproper", and a manuel delete, "make menuconfig", "make", I redone a manual install in /boot, "make modules" and "make modules_install", etc...
I get the same result.
I will point out that for simplicity, I guess (for now I'm only experiencing with Slackware), I've build all modules into the kernel.
I had similar problem with bare.i at my first Slackware install, because I didn't use "HOTPLUG". But now it's always on, although it doesn't scan as long as it used to do.
I have a AthlonXP2400+ with a K7S5A PRO masterboard (on-board sound disable).

Thanks

On a side note, Slackware also has a "testing" directory which amongst others, holds a 2.6 kernel with the alsa-driver package. For Slackware 10.2, that kernel is 2.6.13 and it comes pre-packaged for you.
Trying to figure what you did, did you use the old config from 2.4? If so, thats a big no-no
That's what I did. I started with a bran new installation(updated) but still 2.4 and used the existing file.
That's a start, I didn't know that.

That must be it, I'll need to figure that out..., never done that.

For your network maybe you need to select the right module for your nic in the kernel config
OK, I would like to do that, I can boot back to the old kernel and see what modules are loaded for my NIC. But I never done that, Fedora is very user friendly, what should I look for? How determine what module and how many are used for my Nic?

Look at this Slackware mirror site for instance.

Thanks, I would have like 2.6.5 for the webcam support, but I will use this option as my last choice.
2.6.13 is a newer kernel than 2.6.5 The specs may have been written when 2.6.5 was the newest. Use cd2 and installpkg everything in the /linux-2.6.13 folder
Code:
cd /mnt/cdrom/linux-2.6.13
installpkg *.tgz
The above assumes your cd mounts to /mnt/cdrom. If not, change that to your cd mount point.
That will install all the 2.6.13 source, compiled kernel, and alsa.
You will have to recompile your Nvidia drivers. Run the install.sh for it, tell it 'yes' to everything BUT 'download a kernel interface from the web', tell that no, and have it compile its own driver.

Hi,
It worked as a charm; faster and easier. Can't ask for more!
If you're willing to keep trying to get the kernel compiled correctly, remember that make mrproper will delete the .config file you currently have, and use default options instead. Maybe that's why it doesn't work, you're probably erasing Slackware's .config file and compiling using default options.

Some day I will compile my own kernel, it's going to bother me until I succeed, I know..., the sooner the better.
I did two attempts:
first: "make oldconfig" as suggested in the README supplied with the kernel.
second:"make mrproper" followed by "make menuconfig" I did go thru all the options and save the settings at the end and then did "make"
Somehow I didn't do worst then the "oldconfig", since I got the same results.
If at least my NIC would work, I could built on that...
