All,
I installed 2.4.0 prerelease and the problem I was seeing
w/ kernel: "seemingly random characters" went away. So it would
appear that this is a 2.2 problem only.
One thing I noticed in going to 2.4 was that my sound card
initialization/parameters were/are not available to be set in either
xconfig or menuconfig. I read thru Documentation/Changes and didn't
see anything relevant. I have a no-name half MSS/half SB sound card;
but it did work flawlessly w/ 2.2. The boot messages indicate that
the parameters must be set (I don't remember the actual message; I
can follow up if necessary). I'm sure there is something I am missing;
I just can't see it.
