Hi |

Please, I need urgent help. |

Newbie to Gentoo Linux (previous Mandrake 8.2 user). |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
Have successfully installed Gentoo Linux 1.2 from 16Mb Boot CDRom, rebooted first |
| 8 |
time and got garbled video. |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
I know it is the KM133A ProSavage Bit 5 and or Bit 7 clearing problem! |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
I installed xfs-sources kernel as per your documentation (BTW the documentation on |
| 13 |
the Gentoo 1.2 16Mb CDrom is still refering to Gentoo 1.0 rc ??). |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
I now don't know how to upgrade/patch kernel, and maybe it is as simple as emerging |
| 16 |
the gentoo-sources (2.4.19r7) which if it is patched for this VIA chipset bug then |
| 17 |
I am good to go if you can tell me how to get back to the install and emerge a new |
| 18 |
kernel, compile and install and update GRUB....reboot and he presto I am Gentoo user! |

Please, it is vital I get my machine up ASAP. |
