Description Dan Christian 2002-11-18 20:05:07 UTC

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.1) Gecko/20020827

Description of problem:
When compiling 2.4.18-10 (no others tried), gcc fails with a segmentation fault.
 If you disable that module (DRM i830), then it fails somewhere else.

Everything builds fine with 2.96-112

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. cd /usr/src/linux-2.4
2. cp configs/configs/kernel-2.4.18-athlon.config .config
3. make xconfig
4. make rpm (or just "make")
	

Actual Results:  ld -m elf_i386 -r -o i830.o i830_drv.o i830_dma.o

Comment 1 Vladimir Makarov 2004-10-01 20:43:44 UTC

gcc-2.96 is too old now.  Its release cycle was finished long ago. 
Therefore we are closing the bug.  If it is still important, the
customer could reopen the case.
