I'm running RH9 on AMD Athlon Tbird 1GHz with cable modem.
After upgrading the kernel from 2.4.20-8 to 2.4.20-13.9 (for amd
athlons) using RedHats update network, several problems became apparent.
1. Can not shutdown eth0. When rebooting, it just hangs there (having to
press reset button). When manually done with ifdown eth0, it just sits
there (I've let it go for over an hour and nothing)
2. After loggin in (either KDE or Gnome), and logging out. I'm put at
the regular console, not X.
3. When put into console mode, doing init 3 and then init 5 doesn't
restart X.
4. When using mozilla and going to a page like google.com, click on the
search button freezes mozilla
I've gone back to the 2.4.20-8 kernel, but it looks like there's some
real problems with the newest kernel for amd athlon's. I'm still gonna
try to recompile the kernel manually and see if that fixes the problem,
but has anybody ran into this problem?
Thanks
Tom
