New Hardware

[theo]

I've bought a new computer.
Now I'can't run OpenSuSE 10 anymore. I can install it with Sata -
compatible mode, but all the rest ist not working well either
(Framebuffer Graphics, no Network, no USB etc.).
I'm not the kernel-guru to fix all this.
I didn't even try to install K3 on SuSE 10.2, Mandriva Spring 2007 etc.

What can I do? Is there a distro which is running on i965 Chipset with
Intel GMA X3000 AND still runs K3?

Virtualization? What do you recommend?

Thanks

Yeah, there's no way to run K3 on any distro with glibc > 2.3.6,
so virtualization or even chroot (I'm thinking about this one but didn't try
yet).

P.S: Look at the qt4 progress in lazarus (looks very promising).

Mmmh, sure.... ;-)

I'll try virtualization. WmWare, XEN, Bochs?

Yeah, I saw it. Looks better now.

But I have always SIGSEGV in qtobjects Line 435:

constructor TQtImage.Create(Adata: PByte; width: Integer; height:
Integer; format: QImageFormat);
begin
if Adata = nil then
Handle := QImage_create(width, height, format)
else
Handle := QImage_create(AData, width, height, format); <--GDB

{$ifdef VerboseQt}
WriteLn('TQtImage.Create Result:', dbghex(PtrInt(Handle)));
{$endif}
end;

Oops, wrong forum...;-)

VMware 6 + Mandrake + K3 runs here.

I've tried Virtualbox now.
host: OpenSuse 10.2
guest: SuSE 10.0

Seems to work.

I am using CentOS4.
It will be supported until Feb. 29, 2012.
http://www.centos.org/modules/smartfaq/faq.php?faqid=42
Until then, Lazarus/FPC will be matured than Kylix3.

What do you mean? CentOS4 supports i965 AND runs K3-IDE?

uh-oh, I should have read it carefully.
Sorry, I do not know.

I'm using VMWare-Server and DamnSmallLinux as Guest, and then running Kylix
via SSH-X. It runs very fine (except some keycode-problems with
AltGr-Key-Combos (german keyboard)).

We can install Mandriva 2006 on very recent machines (Dell Core 2 Duo's),
thanks to a special boot CD (Mandriva 2006 Core Updates),
before inserting the original Power Pack DVD. -> No SATA problems

If you do not have this, the Mandriva One may probably be recent enough.
Easy to see how compatible it is, it is a live CD.

I do not know about the i965.
