[04:07] <arno-t_> yippee! I successfully made a kernel with sources from git! How do I configure? Can I run make xconfig?
[04:13] <IntuitiveNipple> arno-t_: The usual .config methods apply :)
[12:03] <pkern> Hi there. Would it be possible to revert to CONFIG_SLAB=y instead of CONFIG_SLUB=y to fix fglrx suspend-to-RAM?

[10:49] <arno-t_> hi. I ran make xconfig, set up a few things and saved config. Then ran the debian/rules script and compiled a kernel. It boots. Now, when I run make xconfig in the root dir, all the options are set to default... (?) How do I check if my compiled (running) kernel has default options, or the options I specified?
[10:52] <pkern> arno-t_: Obviously you did not follow the way of building a kernel package. Check /proc/config.gz if it is present.
[10:53] <arno-t_> pkern I don't have a /proc/config.gz...
[10:56] <pkern> arno-t_: Perhaps I should point you to #ubuntu instead. You won't get much help in here, because a) it's week-end and b) this channel is for kernel development only.
[10:57] <arno-t_> Sorry I thought this channel was for kernel compiling questions. Wrong? I ran "AUTOBUILD=1 NOEXTRAS=1 fakeroot debian/rules binary-debs flavours=386" from the dir downloaded with git, as suggested on the GitKernelGuide wikipage. I ended up with a few deb packages in debian/build (and they boot :).
[10:58] <pkern> arno-t_: Then I suggest to look in /boot for config-*. Good, something else to learn I have to admit, I am not an Ubuntu dev.
[11:03] <arno-t_> thanks a lot pkern. The /boot/config-something-<mykernel> has a line "#CONFIG_MPENTIUMIII is not set" but I definately set it with xconfig. Just to know, is this the right place to ask this kind of how-to-compile-questions, or is this channel for developer use only?
[11:08] <pkern> arno-t_: I'm guessing that you need to edit debian/config/i386/config.386 if you do it the way you do.
[11:08] <pkern> arno-t_: #ubuntu is the point of contact for support, yes.
[11:09] <arno-t_> ok thanks
