Counterspy Posted December 13, 2003 Report Share Posted December 13, 2003 There is no question that he needs the Enterprise kernel. Ever since moving to my current machine with 1 Gb. of memory, the Mandrake installer has always chosen the entersprise version.

SILVERPENGUIN Posted December 13, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2003 (edited) Yes, thanks Counterspy! Is that all it's good for though....Is if you have a larger memory? Any benifits? Special this or that? Edited December 13, 2003 by SILVERPENGUIN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gowator Posted December 14, 2003 Report Share Posted December 14, 2003 Well Im stuffed at the moment. I just installed 9.2 and its certainly quite tarte in my mouth at the moment. Ive got kernel ent 2.4.22-10-mdkenterprise (cos of the 1GB) I still have no idea what kernel ent does apart from >868MB support .... However the nforce source refuses to compile without the kernel source headers and I can't find the enterprise version. The reason I finally reinstalled is everything went pear shaped with 1-2 lockups a week after trying to compile my own source from the MDK vanilla with 4GB and Athalon optimised. All were due to the nvidia nforce drivers. (Im doing this on my laptop) Where the heck is the enterprise source. Ive trawled downloads here and severalplaces without success.

bvc Posted December 14, 2003 Report Share Posted December 14, 2003 well I searched to...but isn't the kernel-source the kernel-source for enterprise? It's just a config option in a regular kernel-source.....then again, ignore me, I know nothing about running HIGHMEM kernels other than that. Worse case.....compile your own. http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3?stat=26&di...1-1mdk.i586.rpm ftp://mandrake-forum.org/pub/Mandrake/Updates/9.2/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SILVERPENGUIN Posted December 14, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2003 The kernel-source that I downloaded for my enterprise was the same as for the standard. Right or wrong, it seems to have worked! Then again...I still can't get a javalet to run! :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gowator Posted December 14, 2003 Report Share Posted December 14, 2003 bvc: I feel the same about enterprise. Like I thought I knew what it was then .... the more I think the more I wonder what the differences are. The particular prob is the nforce drivers. I downloaded the vanilla and recomp with 4GB (and switched to athalon optimisation atthe same time) However this caused problems with the compile of the nforce drivers. Missing symbols etc. and this causes my PC to lockup! Its a massive mess which Is why I tried 9.2 against my better judgement. So far as I can tell the nforce RPM's work with 9.1 vanilla and nothing else. The tarballs won't compile for anything except vanilla-mdk ... In 9.1 I found differences in the kernel-source and the actual compiled kernel from mandrake. I'd always thought the kernel was compiled from the packages claiming to be kernel source but it appears not. In all honestly I think I will have to go back to 9.1 and runing without himem in order to get my system stable since the only working config that was stable was no himem on the vanilla 9.1 kernel using the nvidia supplied rpm's for 9.1. Seems a shame to waste the memory but the alternative seems to be switching to a more stable distro or at least one with the exact source for the kernels .

SILVERPENGUIN Posted December 15, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2003 Hey, bvc....Does SUSE 9 Pro have problems that Gowator is having? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bvc Posted December 15, 2003 Report Share Posted December 15, 2003 I have no idea :unsure: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SILVERPENGUIN Posted December 15, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2003 (edited) I hope it's more stable. I can't wait to get my copy. :) Amazon has it for $64.00, free shipping. Can't beat that! I'm going to start another post for my bitter JAVA experience! Edited December 16, 2003 by SILVERPENGUIN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
