OK. I haven't followed this thread letter by letter but noticed |
| 181 |
something that I ran into after I did my gcc upgrade a bit ago. I |
| 182 |
upgraded my kernel but it did NOT make my modules. I went back and did |
| 183 |
a make modules && make modules_install and they were there then. May be |
| 184 |
worth a try since you are using modules for this. Me, I compile |
| 185 |
everything but my temp sensors *in* the kernel. |
| 186 |
|
| 187 |
Another command that may help shead some light: |

| 209 |
2: Home built; Iwill KK266-R w/ AMD 1GHz CPU, 256MBs of ram and a 4GB drive. |
| 210 |
3: Home built; Gigabyte GA-71XE4 w/ 800MHz CPU, 128MBs of ram and a 2.5GB drive. |
| 211 |
4: Compaq Proliant 6000 Server w/ Quad 200MHz CPUs, 128MBs of ram and a 4.3GB SCSI drive. |
| 212 |
|
| 213 |
All run Gentoo Linux, all run folding. #1 is my desktop, 2, 3, and 4 are set up as servers. |
