I don't want to be the "nasty" person, but one of my machines doesn't like 2.6.23-rc8. Infact, 2.6.23-rc1 was the first kernel this is broken. (I didn't get hands on this machine till now). Since my other x86-64 machines are doing fine, I am going to blame it on my machine specific config :) Thanks, Badari elm3a242:/usr/src/linux-2.6.23-rc8 # make -j4 bzImage CHK include/linux/version.h CHK include/linux/utsrelease.h CALL scripts/checksyscalls.sh CHK include/linux/compile.h SYSCALL arch/x86_64/vdso/vdso.so /usr/lib64/gcc-lib/x86_64-suse-linux/3.3.3/../../../../x86_64-suse- linux/bin/ld: section .text [ffffffffff700500 -> ffffffffff700797] overlaps section .dynstr [ffffffffff7004b8 -> ffffffffff700510] collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[1]: *** [arch/x86_64/vdso/vdso.so] Error 1 make: *** [arch/x86_64/vdso] Error 2 make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
