[linux-audio-dev] some interesting docs for 2.6 testers...

[Werner Johansson]

Hi!

I've been doing some early 2.5 tests, but as I'm running RH8 with the Planet
on top of it there seem to be some problems actually building a 2.5 kernel
(the linked texts here mention optimization problems with the default
RH-shipped gcc as one). So far I haven't been able to boot the 2.5 kernels
properly (yes I have the console working, and the new modutils). Is there
anything like a FAQ somewhere as how to actually build a kernel that would
play nicely with a stock RH8 system including Planet CCRMA on top, or do I
have to redo everything from scratch?
