hi guys,

which version did you successfully compile on your alphas?
i just tried gentoo-sources-2.6.25-r6, which failed.
please report with gcc version.

I'm running gentoo-sources-2.6.25-r6 here without problems.

Try unmerging that version, rm -rf'ing the source folder and reinstalling it.

thanks for the answer, but when i tried 2.6.25-r6, i installed the sources just 2 minutes before. or do you mean the config?
please tell me your gcc, glibc and binutils versions.

Hi,

I'm using binutils-2.18-r1 and gcc-4.1.2.

I think you certainly may have found alpha-related bugs in those drivers. Try building them as modules. In either case, file a bug, either with Gentoo's Bugzilla or the kernel bugzilla

Hope this helps,

Matt

i found this on the inet.
could it be that for some weird reason there are wrong CFLAGS used?
i didn't touch anything in /usr/src/linux, except .config of course.
i still can't build new kernels, which does not make me very happy.

any ideas welcome.

here is the output of the last build with make CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH=y
