Re: RE: [PIC] Mini Howto: Microchip tools under Linux with Wine

Hi wayne,

I could not repeat your problem on Ubuntu Linux 5.04.
Both "./xwisp2u HELP" and "./xwisp2u help" work for me.
The yellow color is a bit difficult to see on a white background
GNOME terminal though. Change to black background and it
will easier to read.

What is your Linux version?

Regards,
Xiaofan

mcuee@ubuntu:~/Desktop/build/XWISP2170$ uname -a

PS:
I was hitting by the bugs detailed here:

or
http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-27709.html

Scenario: after synaptic smart update, this error message pops up
when starting:

Uncompressing Linux...Ok booting kernal.
Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block (0,0).

Now my 2.6.10 kernel died after the "smart" update provide
by Synaptic. Luckily I still have the 2.6.12 Breezy kernel
working (I installed that for PICDEM FS USB CDC demo code).
I will turn off all kernel update after this incident!

Any people here know the solution to this bug? Thanks.
