Look at /etc/palo.conf and see what vmlinux it points to. That's the one that's getting loaded/run. By default you should have gotten a 32-bit kernel. I doubt the syscall wrapper is the issue. Newer 2.4.16 kernels are available from ftp.parisc-linux.org/kernels/32. I suggest grabbing one of those. > The OS line I presented was picked from what > "XFree86 -version" reports. eg. Build Operating System: Linux 2.4.13 i686 [ELF] "uname -m" will tell you which vmlinux you are running on *now*. Not which one the XF86 binaries where built on. > A mismatch in the image itself? not likely. Sounds like you have the original, mostly working kernel still. Just try a newer one. grant
