Thanks! --- Michael wrote: > > If I do 'make menuconfig' with the source from > linuxcare.com.au version > 2.2.14pre9, I can't select the atyfb driver, because > there is no option > for this driver. Who has stolen this option ;-) I second that question, from a slightly different angle. I have been collecting the kernel source from mirrors of the official kernel.org. I get mine from the SunSITE mirror on ftp.cdrom.com. When I do either 'make menuconfig' or 'make xconfig', I notice that under the "console" section, there are two entries for "ATI Mach 64". They are both identical, they're both selected, and I cannot change their selections! This has been true with kernel versions 2.2.10, 2.2.12, 2.2.13, and 2.3.22. I have a Powerbook G3 Wallstreet series (May 1998) and all development environment is from my stock LinuxPPC R5 (not Q3) distribution. Is it imperative for me to upgrade to Q3? I can do that.
