Hello Arjan, The people of RedHat take a good Work by the driver Version 1.20b5. My only problem is that my Athlon is not installed correctly during normal Installation. My Board is an Epox-8KTA+ with the KT133 Chipset and an Athlon 800 Thunderbord. The Mtrr localisate the Athlon CPU as an Intel type here my messages.log ================ Sep 2 22:36:48 localhost kernel: CPU: AMD Athlon(tm) processor stepping 02 Sep 2 22:36:48 localhost kernel: Enabling fast FPU save and restore... done.

My problem is to installing the agpgart for my Geforce 2 MX. I am a newby in linux and tried to compile the Alan Cox Kernel 2.4.6-ac with the patches as a second Kernel on my System. All goes well during Installation of the Kernel and the script for the dev/ataraid devices. Now I have problems with your Makefile. I don´t now in which directory I have to install your driver to run the Makefile for my new Kernel. The Makefile look always to my old kernelversion and not to the new one. I have packed the old Linux-2.4.2-2 Kernel in an Archiv, it is enough? I have now two directories in lib/modules. What do I wrong? [root@localhost ataraid]# make cc -g -I/lib/modules/`uname -r`/build/include -O2 -march=i686 -fomit-frame-point er -Wall -D__KERNEL__ -DMODULE -DMODVERSIONS -Wno-unused -include /lib/modules/ `uname -r`/build/include/linux/modversions.h -c -o ataraid.o ataraid.c In file included from ataraid.c:29: /lib/modules/2.4.2-2/build/include/linux/swap.h:104: parse error before `*' make: *** [ataraid.o] Fehler 1 I tried the new driver from Promise, but with the new driver 1.09 a installation of Redhat isn´t possible. I look for new drivers on the promise site and found this: [08-31-01] The RedHat drivers have been temporarily removed. Please check back in a few days. They have have found theire failure, I think. Excuse me for my bad english Best Regards from Germany Werner Paukert http://www.paukert.de (Koi`s and my pond)
