Speaks for itself... Compiled fine under 2.4.19-r1, I used the default .config file made sure SMP was on and ACPI. Tried it with low latency on and off. PS - the first release of gentoo-sources is a real headache!
This was a bug in the -pre7-ac2 kernel itself and I'm submitting the one-liner fix for the problem upstream to Alan Cox. As you might guess, this'll be fixed in the next gentoo-sources release. I'm sorry it was such a headache to experience this bug and we're doing everything we can to ensure that our kernels are of the highest possible quality. You can apply this one-liner patch to fix the problem (backup your .config and do a "make mrproper", cp config back, "make oldconfig", "make dep" after patching it): --- linux-2.4.18-pre7-ac2/drivers/acpi/ospm/system/sm_osl.c Sun Apr 28 00:38:59 2002 +++ linux-2.4.19-gentoo/drivers/acpi/ospm/system/sm_osl.c Sun Apr 28 00:27:58 2002 @@ -35,6 +35,7 @@ #include <asm/io.h> #include <linux/mc146818rtc.h> #include <linux/delay.h> +#include <linux/suspend.h> #include <acpi.h> #include "sm.h"
