Want i810 support for X. wont run svga but will run vga-crappy graphics! So could someone tell me how to upgrade to 2.4 kernel and xfree86 4. Possible apt lines to use. Only want kernel and x upgrade so sys is somewhat stable. THANKS TO ANYONE FOR THE HELP!!!
please adjust your mail client to wrap lines at 76 characters (should be in
the sending/text options of outlook express)
to get kernel 2.4 and xfree 4 add the following lines to you
/etc/apt/sources.list:
-- begin --
# Kernel 2.4
deb http://people.debian.org/~bunk/debian potato main
deb-src http://people.debian.org/~bunk/debian potato main
# XFree 4
deb http://people.debian.org/~cpbotha/ xf402_potato/i386/
-- end --
then do an apt-get update and an apt-get upgrade. to install the kernel you
can use apt-get install kernel-image<version>.
yours martin
