Recently folks here pointed out to me that it was known that gcc 2.95 is not to be used for 2.2.x kernels. Others said that it was OK with 2.2 kernels but not 2.0 kernels. Looking at various kernel and gcc deb packages in potato, I saw hints of the latter statement, but it didn't seem

Sorry to reply to my own posting, but all I've had in response is one private email concurring that a working ppp under 2.0.x doesn't work under 2.2.x. Having played about with arp under 2.2.10, the problem seems to boil down to this: # arp -i eth0 -d 888.888.92.28 # arp -i eth0 -s 888.888.92.28

No. 2.2.x kernels just have better smp support in them. Just turn off symetric multi-processing when you make the kernel. Rob On Thu, 20 May 1999, Pollywog wrote: > Are the 2.2.x kernels for SMP systems only? I have a Pentiu
