Problems with the 2.2 Kernel or other "pre" versions

Applies to

SuSE Linux: Version 6.0
Kernel: Versions after 2.1.81

Symptom:

ISDN no longer functions, even with the same settings.
Network card does not work either.
TCP/IP connection is not working right.
I cannot print; pls. see ke_parport.html.
The kernel cannot be recompiled and the sound modules refuse to work.
"pnpdump" gives the error "lspci".
...

Reason:

The cause of this has to do with the changes in kernel 2.2 which comes on the CD "SuSE Linux 6.0".

Solution:

Use the standard 2.0.36 kernel that comes with the distribution.

In the case that you recive the error message "lspci", you should instal the package "pciutils" from the series "a" (only for kernels after 2.1.82, not for kernel 2.0.36).
