Hi, I seem to have a problem with compiling the kernel 2.4.13 on redhat 7.2? It would compile fine but have errors about ext3 support on reboot. I download ext3-2.4-0.9.13-2413.gz to my linux machine to enable it be useful with ext3 support but when I try to gunzip it with the instructions gunzip < ~/ext3-2.4-0.9.13-2413.gz | patch -p1 i get gunzip: stdin: not in gzip format I get an

Hi folks, I meant to send this in to the devel list a while ago (1 Jul, actually) but school has until recently had a strangehold on me. The issue is this: the sshd.pam.generic in the openssh-2.1.1p4/contrib directory can be modified to suit standard SuSE 6.4 configurations as thus: {crimsun@[dhcp1520]:~} diff -c /etc/pam.d/sshd openssh-2.1.1p4/contrib/sshd.pam.generic *** /etc/pam.d/sshd Sat Jul 1 19:52:23 2000 --- openssh-2.1.1p4/contrib/sshd.pam.generic Tue Mar 14 20:25:06 2000 *************** *** 1,8 **** #%PAM-1.0 ! auth required /lib/security/pam_unix_auth.so...

The problem is that the call to deactivate_page is unresolved. The routine used to be defined in swap.c. It looks like it no longer exists in 2.4.14. I'm not a kernel programmer so if I'm mistaken, sorry. I do get an

I've not been happy with the stories about the "stable" 2.4.x kernels. Everywhere I read people saying "not for production use". Would you recommend adding ext3 to 2.2.19 (ext3-0.0.7a) or moving to 2.4.1x and using ext3 there (ext3-0.9.12)? -- -IAN! Ian! D.
