Does pcmcia-cs work with koutput? I did my first ever 2.6 gentoo install and I got errors which I seem to recall were related to my kernel tree being in /var/tmp/kernel-ouput. I can try it again with and return more details later if necessary. emerge info: Portage 2.0.50-r10 (default-x86-2004.2, gcc-3.3.4, glibc-2.3.3.20040420-r1, 2.6.8.1) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.8.1 i686 Celeron (Coppermine) Gentoo Base System version 1.5.3 distcc 2.16 i686-pc-linux-gnu (protocols 1 and 2) (default port 3632) [enabled] Autoconf: sys-devel/autoconf-2.59-r4 Automake: sys-devel/automake-1.8.5-r1 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86 ~x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-O3 -march=i686 -fomit-frame-pointer" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" COMPILER="" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.3/share/config:/usr/kde/3.3/env:/usr/kde/3.3/shutdown /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/lib/mozilla/defaults/pref /usr/share/config /usr/share/texmf/dvipdfm/config/ /usr/share/texmf/dvips/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/generic/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/platex/config/ /usr/share/texmf/xdvi/ /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-O3 -march=i686 -fomit-frame-pointer" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoaddcvs ccache distcc sandbox" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://gentoo.osuosl.org http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/gentoo" MAKEOPTS="-j5" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="X Xaw3d acpi alsa apm arts berkdb cjk crypt cups dga dvd emacs encode esd f77 faad fbcon fftw flac gcj gdbm gif gimpprint ginac gnome gpm gstreamer gtk gtk2 imlib jack jpeg leim libg++ libwww lirc live mad matroska mikmod mmx mng motif mozilla mpeg ncurses nls objc offensive oggvorbis opengl oss pam pdflib perl plotutils png ppds python qhull qt quicktime radeon readline rtc scanner sdk sdl slang speex spell sse ssl svg tcpd tetex theora tiff truetype usb v4l video_cards_mach64 wxwindows x86 xinerama xml xml2 xmms xosd xv xvid zlib"
I have stopped using koutput and pcmcia-cs works fine. When I reported this bug, I incorrectly had all pcmcia stuff disabled in the kernel (see bug #63104). This bug *may* be invalid: someone needs to check if a correctly configured kernel (with pcmcia) *and* koutput causes problems with pcmcia-cs. I may start using koutput again if bug #62659 gets resolved.
I get the same symptoms on my laptop. Using kouput, pcmcia-cs seems to fail to find the .config file. copying the .config file to /usr/src/linux gets different errors. Building the kernel with out using kouput seems to work just fine. emerge info output ```````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````` mlplt6034b ~ # emerge info Portage 2.0.51_rc7 (default-x86-2004.0, gcc-3.4.2, glibc-2.3.4.20040808-r0, 2.6.8-gentoo-r5 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.8-gentoo-r5 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) M processor 1400MHz Gentoo Base System version 1.5.3 distcc 2.17 i686-pc-linux-gnu (protocols 1 and 2) (default port 3632) [disabled]ccache version 2.3 [enabled] Autoconf: sys-devel/autoconf-2.59-r4 Automake: sys-devel/automake-1.8.5-r1 Binutils: sys-devel/binutils-2.15.90.0.1.1-r3 Headers: sys-kernel/linux-headers-2.4.22 Libtools: sys-devel/libtool-1.5.2-r5 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86 ~x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-O2 -march=pentium4 -fomit-frame-pointer" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" COMPILER="" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.2/share/config /usr/kde/3.3/share/config:/usr/kde/3.3/env:/usr/kde/3.3/shutdown /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/lib/mozilla/defaults/pref /usr/share/config /var/qmail/alias /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -march=pentium4 -fomit-frame-pointer" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoaddcvs ccache distlocks sandbox" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://gentoo.chem.wisc.edu/gentoo/ http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/gentoo/ http://mirrors.tds.net/gentoo http://mirror.datapipe.net/gentoo ftp://planetmirror.com/pub/gentoo/" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="" SYNC="rsync://rsync.us.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="X aalib acl alsa apache2 apm arts avi berkdb bitmap-fonts cdr crypt cups doc dvd dvdr encode esd ext2 ext3 flac foomaticdb freetds gdbm gif gimpprint gnome gpm gstreamer gtk gtk2 gtkhtml imlib java jpeg kerberos ldap libg++ libwww mad mikmod mmx mng motif mozdevelop mozilla mozxmlterm mp3 mpeg mysql nas ncurses nls ogg oggvorbis opengl oss pam pdflib perl png postgres ppds python qt quicktime readline ruby samba sdl slang spell sse ssl svg svga tcltk tcpd threads tiff truetype usb wmf x86 xinerama xml xml2 xmms xprint xv zlib video_cards_radeon"
koutput is depreciated and no longer used maintained. This is because of the build system fixes that the kernel developers commited to the 2.6.6 kernel. As as result, it is no longer supported by Gentoo Mobile team. Below is the post to gentoo-dev mailing list by the creator of the koutput system. Hey all, Been busy with lots of other things, and dreading sending this anyway, but I wanted to clear things up Re: the koutput/kbuild stuff that I'd worked on to fix some problems previously related to 2.6 kernel build issues. Unfortunately, the fix that was 95% implemented, and had the beginnings of code in the tree got ham-strung by a combination of kernel stuff changing under my/our feet, and Real Life (tm) things coming in at just the wrong time. As a result, the kmod.eclass, and config-kernel have several problems, and are only 1/2 implemented anyway. Sooo, don't use kmod.eclass. Just don't. config-kernel i will be package.masking as well soon. I know there are a few ebuilds out there that currently use kmod.eclass for a few things. I'll be contacting those maintainers over the next few days to address things with them, and get them sorted out with how to get things working with 2.6.6 and newer kernels. If you get any bugs from people complaining about such and such ebuild not working with koutput, assing or CC me, and i'll deal with it. Thanks. Sorry for any confusion folks. -pete
