Re: ng-1.5.2: "long-term stable" kernel version


Dear Mr. Morin,

I tried the following kernel versions on RTD's PC104 Core2Duo:

2.6.29: I had a problem with remap_pfn_range. I used it to map phisical memory to a user space virtual memory. This problem is mentined in osdir and in the kernel's BugZilla.

2.6.31.1: After the extraction of the bzImage, the screen is black for a second and then boot continues. But sometimes, boot does not continue and PC starts from BIOS (as in cold reset). This problem is not deterministic.

As I said, I'm sure the cause is not the toolchain but linux code.

Thanks.

I built a toolchain for i686 using 2.6.31.1
Then I noticed the words "long-term stable" near 2.6.27.35
What does it mean ?
Did someone made QA tests for this version ?

I had problems with 2.6.29 and 2.6.31.1.
I'm sure the cause to the problems is not the toolchain but the kernel code.

Without the error message, the context, and other related information, we are
not able to help you.
