Re: Making a 2.4.21 for Redhat

I tried downloading a stock 2.4.21 kernel and compiled it, which worked and booted it. On one machine, Athalon, my USB mouse stopped working. On another, Dell laptop p4, the boot sequence hung when trying to probe for firewire. I also tried this with alan cox's patches. Same story.

I'm sorry if I'm saying nonsenses... During the RedHat 9 beta, I did
compile a stock 2.4.20 without the NPTL backport patches and GNOME and
Nautilus hung. I filled in a bug report but it was closed as "expected
if you don't have an NPTL-enabled kernel".

Maybe the NPTL patches have been integrated into 2.4.21 mainline without
me getting notice of it.



Nope. NTPL is scheduled for 2.5, but I believe the RH folks patched some
of the bugs which showed up when booting a kernel without NPTL. It
worked for me anyway...

I have 2 mbox files that would like to join. What is the best way to do so? I was thinking on something like this:

$ cat mbox1 >> mbox2

It might look like a dumb question, but I'm concerned that the attachments wont be copied or any other problem can occur.




You can do this without touching the
original mbox files -

cat mbox1 mbox2 > newmbox

Then look at "newmbox" with your mail
client and see if it's OK -

meanwhile mbox1 and mbox2 are unchanged.

It would be interesting to post a "diff -u" between the good prefs.js
and the bad one.



I don't think there's any need to post the whole output of diff -u (it's very, very long). I can tell you what the most significant difference is: the new prefs.js does not have a single line beginning

user_pref("font.
in it. My old prefs.js files had survived numerous OS upgrades,
re-installs and fresh installs, and had been in place, tweaked over
time, through numerous versions of Mozilla (from the old milestone days)
and Galeon (pre-1.0). Long before Unicode became the norm, and font
handling became sane, I had manually set the fonts for every single
encoding. Now this used to work, but I suspect that the settings were
just too complicated and baroque for their own good. I guess I'll see
how well things stand up when I browse pages in non-European scripts,
but I'm reasonably confident that Red Hat have got this stuff working
quite well now.


Best, Darren
