Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" ; format="flowed" Sender: owner-linuxppc-dev@lists.linuxppc.org List-Id: I've noticed in the last couple benh kernels that I cannot set altivec to yes or no in the config using xconfig or menuconfig, and that there is no mention of it in the .config file. Also when exiting xconfig, an error is thrown trying to write CONFIG_ALTIVEC. It's all consistent, but what's going on - should it be this way or am I missing the obvious? I can compile, but when I'm building mol it detects the kernel as noav, which feeds my suspicions. I'm currently on 2.4.23-pre5-ben0, old world, with a G4/800 Sonnet upgrade card.
