-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 This is nice, but since the b44 (broadcom ethernet) driver plus the stock kernel lock up when I enable the wired adapter, I am running with a brand new kernel (2.6.18) and most things work. I had to hack the ipw3945 to build on that kernel as well (2.6.17->2.6.18 broke it due to a detection problem with what ieee80211 API to use). I have a couple of outstanding problems (nothing bad enough to prevent me using the system though). Does anyone know how to fix: o SELinux has to have enforcing=0 to boot on the more recent kernels - is there an easy policy fix or such that would help here? o hald segfaults at startup o where the heck is the battery status applet for gnome in SL4 - there was one that worked fine with acpi in SL3 but I'm darned if I can fine one in SL4 Robert E.
