(Please check that the problem happens on Linus' tree if not then file under the Alternate Trees category.) Exact Kernel version: 2.4.57 Distribution: Mandrake Hardware Environment: AMD k7 800 mhz Software Environment: Mandrake 8.1 and its related libaries Problem Description: In the Frame buffer section the driver fails to compile when make bzImage is initiated to compile the kernel, if this driver isn't selected the kernel compiles cleanly without errors, and this is same for ATI's Radeon and Rage 32, and might be for other frame buffer drivers too........ are their any patch to make them work as with it i can't proceed further to test the beta kernel in any way as i can't boot in the first place. And if u fellow ppl have any idea of how to make mandrake boot with out the frame buffer driver or whatever so i can start testing it........? Steps to reproduce: Well all those ppl who are having radeon gpu's select the required driver in the frame buffer section under console drivers, and either u compile it in the kernel ya as a module i am sure u will not be able to compile the kernel.
