I've built a custom kernel with only what I need, and everything shows up fine, with no conflicts. Though I'm a little concerned with the port of the SB and the mouse. The SB 16 is set to port 0x220 and the mouse is (unmovable) at 0x23c. 1) When I halt/reboot/shutdown the machine, it tries to sync but after a line full of 1 1 1 1 1 it says giving up. then on reboot it says / was not properly unmounted. Could it be that the partition goes past 1024 cylinders? 2) X won't work. I can only start it as root, though the device is 666. I tried this with both the sco and the vt console. (I built both) There is a 1 inch border on all sides. I don't have enough screen to let that happen. The mouse runs to 0 0 and then won't move from it, the first time you touch the mouse. This is the mse0 driver. Any help is appreciated. Thanks, Paul. -- Paul T.
