Ok so I never did get 2.6 to work correctly so I tried a 2.4.24 build using the 2.4.23 config file but it errored here:
| Code: | make[3]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.24-sparc/drivers/char/drm'

Ok so now I'm searching in fourms but have not found anything concrete yet 
Looks like they moved drm source in 24 releases but forgot to tell everybody
Any help would be glady accepted 
Maybe after 2.4.24 works I try 2.6.1  [/b]
EDIT: Ok so I see DRM in many PC related posts HMMM I will see if I remove it in Kernel.
Nobody posting this error in SPARC land so I think I chose badly in Kernel config or it worked in 23 but not 24.
EDIT 2 wait I need DRM or Xfree will wine loudly about DRI suport  now I remember this.....
Ok looking in google I see that they patched drm from 2.6 back to 2.4.23 no mention of 2.4.24 hmmmmm |

| I've also been unable to get xfree working with any form of 2.4.24, but 2.4.23 works fine. Unfortunately I don't know enough about building kernels to go into any detail, but can provide Xfree logs and so on if it would help. |

| The above error was a kernel bug in 2.4.24 that was carried over from 2.4.23 due to the quick release of 2.4.24 due to a security bug. If you build a 2.4.25 kernel, that problem should go away. |

Thanks,
So is 25 under dev-sparc or source-sparc now? |

sparc-sources-2.4.25 will work or vanilla-sources-2.4.25
sparc-dev-sources is now depreciated by development-sources, but it's only design was for test 2.6 kernels for sparc. |
