[08:22] <holst> less and less people in the channels that Im joining
[08:22] <holst> that must mean that im closing in
[08:22] <holst> I am trying to make a m-a package out of perfctr kernel module
[08:22] <Nafallo> hehe
[08:22] <holst> however, the src needs to patch the kernel directory
[08:22] <holst> how can I accomplish this with m-a?
[08:23] <holst> or rather- any good howto about this?
[08:24] <holst> hello? =D
[08:26] <zul> holst: you can try making a patch against the current git tree and submitting the patch to the kernel-team mailing list
[08:29] <holst> why current git tree?
[08:29] <holst> I dont get that part
[08:29] <zul> because its not likely that we would be accepting new drivers for feisty

[08:30] <zul> anyways check the wiki 
[08:30] <holst> aha, you mean that it could be a kernel module?
[08:30] <zul> 14:23  * ScottK activates his "Somebody else's problem" field and gets back to coding.
[08:30] <holst> thats a bit more than I was thinking
[08:30] <zul> doh https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam
[08:31] <holst> I was thinking a less agressive assult on the problem using m-a

[08:50] <holst> So now I have a patch that works without problem against linux-source-2.6.20. Can I work with that? is #ubuntu-kernel the wrong forum for this sort of questions?
=== rikai__ [n=rikai@pool-72-65-96-239.ptldme.east.verizon.net]  has joined #ubuntu-kernel
[08:56] <johanbr> module-assistant usually builds modules out-of-tree, so it depends on whether your kernel module supports that. If it doesn't, things get uglier.
[09:01] <holst> thats what I mean
=== rikai__ is now known as rikai
[09:01] <holst> is there a framework inside m-a to build this type of modules?
[09:05] <johanbr> What do you mean by "this type"? Out-of-tree modules? If so, the answer is yes.
=== \sh_away is now known as \sh
=== \sh is now known as \sh_away
=== \sh_away is now known as \sh
[09:16] <holst> hmm, I have been talking about, "the src needs to patch the kernel directory"
[09:16] <holst> so out-of-tree modules doesnt seem to fit the description
[09:16] <holst> if tree is the kernel directory
=== \sh is now known as \sh_away
[09:24] <johanbr> So the module needs to depend on some specific version of the kernel source package. Which defeats the whole purpose of packaging the source.
