Compiled with no issues:

eddy@Slacker:~$ uname -r
2.6.0-test3

Seems to work fine, although I had to do another escd reset to get my external USB2.0 disk to work. Think I will have a tinker with ALSA next.

Glad I'm not the only one who's not blown over but qt's looks.

Thanks for the post Eddy.

I'll test this one out as well then. I didn't have great luck with test2 though.
I too dislike the Qt config interface. try doing make gconfig instead, see if that suits you better still same layout as qconf. menuconfig still works fine though, sa to the normal make config, I haven't done that one for AGES and don't intend on testing it out. However, the fltk version seems to be gone for good.
I too am planning to switch to ALSA sometime soon, but I still use my patched 2.4.20 kernel most of the time, and don't want to compile any more modules independantly as I reckon I'll break something.

Right, I've got it running. It was a bit of a freakout though. Looks good and is as stable as 2.4.20, although I still haven't built all my external modules.
