Mandrake 10 OE - Which kernel should I use?

[Gowator]

The only differencer is if the /home filesystem is recreated.

 

However if not it might give some problems.

 

Why not get the knoppix kernel source for that version and see what is in the .configure file that isnt in the one with the MDK kernel...

 

even just compile and install it (not forgetting it will be an initrd kernel from knoppix)

at least you know THAT kernel works for you with your boards.

I'm not sure but I may have fixed the stability issues...

 

3 instances of chromium

1 xmms playing from another drive

2 glxgears

1 Gimp

1 Konqueror

 

Load average is 3.

 

I'll leave this running all day and see if it's still up when I get home in 13hours.

 

I also noticed something a little annoying when I installed xmms. It might be the cause of some peoples problems with playing sound... I know it gave me trouble. The icon it sets up in the k(star)t button executes the command 'soundwrapper xmms'. When I used that to launch xmms it just crashed, so I loaded it from command line without any problems. I might be a good idea to check that out if you're having trouble. If the command line works then edit the icon and remove soundwrapper from the command.

 

I don't know, just a thougt.

Check earlier threads on the Sound Wrapper problem.

There is a very simple remedy but I am not in a position to locate the remedy details at the moment.

The best answer though is to install the updated version of XMMS which corrected the problem.

 

Cheers. John.
