Hi,

System: debian/unstable

I just tried 2.6.9-rc3-mm3 and I have two problems:

- - he calls himself 2.6.9-rc-mm31, yeah 31. I don't know where this comes
from, because in the Makefile itself it is mm3. Whatever makes him do
that, I don't know, but he install himselfs like this, perhaps the
problems come from that

- - cdrecord segfaults. Again I don't know if this is cdrecords fault or
not, but cdrecord works fine with 2.6.9-rc2-mm1

If needed I provide the kernel config.

Weird.  Works fine here.  Maybe this is a bug in the debian build
process, try building from a fresh tree.

You might need to back out this patch:

ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.9-rc3/2.6.9-rc3-mm3/broken-out/optimize-profile-path-slightly.patch

HTH,

Hello, I had something like that happen the other day because without
paying attention,  I said 'n' to the question of "Local version -
append to kernel release" during oldconfig instead of leaving it
blank. It was 2.6.9-rc3n

Check to make sure you haven't done something similar (it's under
General Setup).

I'll build from kernel.org vanilla 2.8.1 + rc3 + mm3 patch.

OH! hehe, that comes when you make oldconfig, and just don't read new
stuff in detail. Thanks a lot, I would have never found that ...
