I wonder if anyone can help with maintaining the RapIDE patch that ARMedslack's carrying. ftp://ftp.armedslack.org/armedslack/armedslack-current//source/k/sources/linux-2.6/patches/rapide.patch The diff between Linux 2.6.21 and 2.6.22 is shown below -- and the RapIDE patch no longer applies: I'm not sure whether the changes made in 2.6.22 are significant. As far as I know, the RapIDE code that is in the Kernel doesn't work anyway - it's more of a dummy. I'd like to get the RapIDE patch in ARMedslack into the upstream Kernel if possible (I don't know if RMK would like the formatting of the code though ;-) ) Can anybody help with making the new patch apply to Linux 2.6.22.1 ? I have many updates for ARMedslack and am currently building the Kernel for the RiscPC.

It took me a lot of work but I have lately been running essentially Slackware 12.0 on MIPS minus a few packages that didn't build but I see you have patches for them. Now I'm building extra software and catching up with x86 in that respect. I still have to build an installer though but I think I can reuse much of your procedure. Be sure to build KDevelop without $NUMJOBS though because it will bail out with an error if you do. Its developers told me it does so on x86 too. I bought a Sun Enterprise 250 server a few days ago and I will gradually port Slackware 12.0 to it over the coming month(s). Splack seems stuck at 10.2 but I will ensure that the latest Slackware will run on the architecture. I am also looking forward to create IA64 and PA-RISC versions in the mid to longer term if I can get hold of the hardware so Slackware will go to all architectures that Debian has gone to and beyond :-).
