Hi Jon,

Thanks a lot. I guess, I would never be able to install Linux to my new ze5385 without your instructions. I did exactly what you said and that is it, fortunately I made it work :) However, I have one more problem while shutting down the unit. The screen freezes trying to attempt to unload the kernel card services. I am not sure about that, but at least, the last line before freezing is the following:
"Stopping pcmcia: Unloading Kernel Card Services"

So, I have to close the unit manually. Did you have the same problem? Any idea about that? Also I will be waiting for your suggestions about running X.

Thanks again.

Menal.

I also realized that the touchpad mouse wheel and cd driver/writer both are not working. Am I doing something wrong?

Hi Jon,

Could you solve the hardware (cd/dvd-rom, floppy,etc) and shut-down problems in RH9? Also, I replaced the old XF86Config file with yours, touchpad mouse works fine but still without the scrool wheel. :(

Thanks,
Menal.

Hi Jon, Mike,

rename ohci194.o (lib/modules/2.4.20-18.9-or whatever-/kernel/drivers/ieee1394) and then make kudzu on (chkconfig --level 5(or 3 or whatever) kudzu on). this makes kudzu and hence cd-rom/floppy... work and postpones the shutdown problem until just after the 'Power down' line. I guess -as I read a few things about it- this new problem can be overcome by apmd support in kernel. any idea how to do that?
