Kernel 1.2.11, SB support and Ftape support??

Kernel 1.2.11, SB support and Ftape support??

Post by Cyno » Mon, 17 Jul 1995 04:00:00



I just installed kernel 1.2.11.  While doing the make config, I told
it I wanted dounf support.  I put me into the sound subsection where I
configured my SB16.  But then it assumed that I had several other
cards as well.  make config crashed very nicely when I just hit enter
hoping to pass by the other sound cards.  Seems that it didn't like it
when the default 220 was used for both gravis and my SB.

How do I get past this?

Also, when doing the make config, I didn't see a selection for ftape
to support the QIC-80 format.  Now I get an error at boot-up from the
ftape module that is being loaded.

Any suggestions for either of these?

Thanks-

The reason why ftape isn't working is that you have to recompile the module
under the kernel version in which you are running.  If you recompiled
the kernel and now are running 1.2.11, but the old ftape module was
compiled under 1.2.1 (or any other kernel version other than 1.2.11), than
you would need to recompile ftape.
