When I upgraded to the FC2 Test I ran into four major problems:
<br>
1) My USB didn't work (since I have a USB mouse this is important)
<br>
2) Samba mounts no-longer worked (reported the error "smbfs not
supported by kernel")
<br>
3) My sound card drivers didn't load
<br>
4) My ATI All-In-Wonder 9800 Driver won't compile so 3D acceleration is
disabled [unresolved]
<br>
<br>
Solution to number one:
<br>
* Open /etc/modprobe.conf.dist in an editor (or modprobe.conf - my
modprobe.conf just forwarded to my modprobe.conf.dist)
<br>
* Add the line "alias usb-controller uhci-hcd"
<br>
* For some reason (at least for me) the usb controller was not setup to
load because that line was missing
<br>
<br>
Solution to number two:
<br>
* Change directory to your linux source (for me this was
/usr/src/linux-2.6.2-1.79/)
<br>
* run "make menuconfig" and locate the samba file system in the menus,
turn it into a module
<br>
* recompile the kernel
<br>
* copy smbfs.ko from <linux source><i class="moz-txt-slash"><span
class="moz-txt-tag">/</span>fs/smbfs<span class="moz-txt-tag">/</span></i>
to <linux modules><i class="moz-txt-slash"><span
class="moz-txt-tag">/</span>kernel/fs/smbfs<span class="moz-txt-tag">/</span></i>
(for my linux modules was /lib/modules/2.6.1-1.65)
<br>
* modprobe smbfs
<br>
<br>
Solution to number three:
<br>
* Open /etc/modprobe.conf.dist in an editor (see solution to 1 for
note)
<br>
* Add the appropriate lines for your sound card, this information is
available at the ALSA website (<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/">http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/</a>)
<br>
* Restart
<br>
<br>
Solution to number four:
<br>
* I haven't solved this one, if someone knows how to get the AIW 9800
driver to compile I'd really appreciate help with it
