[cobalt-developers] re:Hello,



Hi,

ACPI was not enabled. Any other idea?

Fran

PD: I will try to write down the steps and send them to the list, since it seems that some people are interested in the procedure.

I have installed RedHat 8.0 on a Cobalt Raq3. It seems to work fine, except for two things:

1) Issuing the 'reboot' command shuts down all services, etc. but then it shows the message "Rebooting system..." and stalls there. I have to manually switch off the appliance in order to reboot it.

2) The display does not work. I have installed the display packages from the Cobalt Restoration CD, but when I try to show something on the display I get this message:

[root@cobalt root]# lcd-write "Red Hat Linux on" " a Cobalt Qube 3"
LCD is not present

I think both problems are related with the kernel compilation I have maken, since I used the config file that comes with RedHat.

Any ideas of what I am missing in order to make both functions work properly on the Cobalt?

Thanks,

PD: BTW, I have installed RH 8.0 without removing the hard disk from the cobalt and placing it into another PC. If anyone is interested, I can sum up the steps I followed.

Hi, you might have enabled ACPI in the Kernel. This is not working in RaQ3.

BTW, could i have the summarized stps you took?

Hello,

I have installed RedHat 8.0 on a Cobalt Raq3. It seems to work fine, except
for two things:

1) Issuing the 'reboot' command shuts down all services, etc. but then it
shows the message "Rebooting system..." and stalls there. I have to manually
switch off the appliance in order to reboot it.

2) The display does not work. I have installed the display packages from the Cobalt Restoration CD, but when I try to show something on the display I get
this message:

I think both problems are related with the kernel compilation I have maken,
since I used the config file that comes with RedHat.

Any ideas of what I am missing in order to make both functions work properly
on the Cobalt?
