Ok, I've just switched to kernel-image-2.4.26-r5k-ip22 (not familiar enough with the architecture to try and build my own kernel). I see that many new drivers have been added, including: - A hal2 driver for sound (output works perfectly... and you say input doesn't? why?) - A vino driver. However, when I try to load it, modprobe fails and a dmesg shows the following message: "VINO: failed to read revision register". Anybody knows what can cause this? Also, slightly off-topic, I miss utilities like lspci which allow you to view the hardware present in the machine. Since the Indy has no PCI bus whatsoever, are there similar tools in MIPS? Thank you.
