hi, i have recompiled and everything have worked very good :) now i am =20 able to use my notebook without having to stay just at my desk :) btw where i cad read a little more about those dependencies like SMP =20 enabled -> have to use usb2. i have searched on google about how to enable usb2 on the kernel but i =20 found just exemples of kernel config's and not why it shoul dbe used. Thank you, --=20 Octavian Quoting Octavian Ionescu <itavy@itavy.com>: > hi, > > yes i have SMP enabled. i will recompile the kernel with the new > options and i will let yuo know. > > Thank you > --=20 > Octavian > > > Quoting "Paul B.
