| Angelus | hi | 00:41 |
|---|---|---|
| Angelus | i made an apt-get source linux-source, and it gave me an empty linux-meta folder with a debian folder | 00:41 |
| Angelus | is this right?:S | 00:41 |
| Keybuk | Angelus: technically, yes ;) | 00:42 |
| Keybuk | since linux-source is an empty package that depends on the version of linux-source you want | 00:42 |
| Keybuk | (try apt-get source linux-source-2.6.22 :p) | 00:42 |
| Angelus | ahhh | 00:42 |
| Angelus | ok | 00:42 |
| Angelus | cause the guide on the wiki only says to do "apt-get source linux-source" | 00:43 |
| Angelus | hehe | 00:43 |
| Angelus | ok Keybuk it worked, thanks alot | 00:45 |
| Angelus | is it posible to run make menuconfig to edit one of the configs in /debian/config ? | 00:55 |
| zul | AngelusL: you would have to do something like cat one of the configs.* to config | 01:00 |
| Angelus | zul: would doing "make menuconfig" in the kernel source tree, and saving to the .config , then copy it to /debian/config/amd64/config do the trick ? | 01:04 |
| zul | Angelus: I would cp debian/config/amd64/config to your kernel source and then cat debian/config/amd64/config.generic to .config and then make menuconfig but its all in the wiki | 01:17 |
| Angelus | zul: the wiki only tells you to edit debian/config/amd64/config or the other flavours | 01:18 |
| Angelus | it doesnt state anything about menuconfig :p | 01:18 |
| zul | cat debian/config/am64/config > .config | 01:18 |
| zul | cat debian/config/amd64/config.generic >> .config | 01:18 |
| zul | copy to your kernel source and then do make menuconfig | 01:19 |
| Angelus | zul: im having this error when i update the configs with debian/rules | 01:25 |
| Angelus | debian/scripts/misc/oldconfig: line 66: /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.22-2.6.22/debian/scripts/misc/splitconfig.pl: Permission denied | 01:25 |
| zul | dont run the script just do what I said and then run make menuconfig | 01:25 |
| zul | im off to bed | 01:26 |
| Angelus | yes i know zul , but the guide says that after make menuconfig/ or editing the config you must update the configs with that script | 01:26 |
| thully | Hi - i'm trying to rebuild git snapshots of my kernel to test for a but and after one successful build, I'm now getting the following error... | 03:52 |
| thully | /usr/bin/fakeroot: 166: debian/rules: not found | 03:53 |
| thully | how do I get the debian/rules file to exist again? I'm assuming the previous build destroyed it | 03:53 |

| dconway | hi | 11:53 |
| dconway | which ubuntu kernel supports webcam support | 11:53 |
| dconway | Bus 004 Device 002: ID 05ca:1837 Ricoh Co., Ltd | 11:53 |
| dconway | no driver support for it yet? | 11:53 |
| dconway | any hints appreciated | 11:55 |
| dconway | does a diff version of the kernel matter? | 11:55 |
| dconway | anyone awake | 11:56 |
| Angelus | guys | 13:35 |
| Angelus | i compiled a custom kernel | 13:35 |
| Angelus | it created me a bunch of .deb files | 13:36 |
| Angelus | like sata-modules , pata-modules, 4 kenrel images, 4kernel headers | 13:36 |
| Angelus | do i need to install everything? | 13:36 |
| Angelus | iv got all these http://rafb.net/p/t0EQfD51.html | 13:38 |
| abogani | Angelus: udeb files are for installer only. You can ignore these. | 13:39 |
| Angelus | abogani: and the modules files? the ones like sata-modules? they're installer files? | 13:40 |
| abogani | Angelus: AFAIK Yes. All files with udeb extension working in Debian Installer only (aka alternate CD in Ubuntu slang). | 13:41 |
| Angelus | ahh | 13:42 |
| Angelus | ok | 13:42 |
| Angelus | thankz mate | 13:42 |
| Angelus | ok last question, for compiling the restricted modules, do i need to install every header package ? like generic, server, rt and the rest? | 13:42 |
| abogani | I don't know, sorry. | 13:46 |

| lamont | zul: THANKS | 18:05 |
| lamont | who hit that caps lock key | 18:05 |
| Angelus | hello | 21:52 |
| Angelus | i compiled the kernel sucesffuly using debian/rules, everything worked fine including restricted drivers, BUT adept is telling me to update from 2.6.22 to 2.6.22 i can't understand why. its the same version as the ubuntu's official version even the ABI number | 21:52 |
| Angelus | please somebody answer me i really need to fix this anoying issue :( | 22:40 |
| Nafallo | Angelus: it works as it is supposed to then... | 22:50 |
| Nafallo | Angelus: prefer the version from the repos if it is the same version. | 22:50 |
| gnomefreak | Angelus: you changed it that makes i < ubuntu versions (assuming you either didnt pass all the config options or you passed a config option ubuntu doesnt use | 22:52 |
| === chuck is now known as zul | ||
| Nafallo | gnomefreak: no, why? | 23:12 |
| Nafallo | gnomefreak: I'm pretty sure it does what I wrote as well. | 23:12 |
| gnomefreak | Nafallo: if he changed config options and kept same version its gonna be < ubuntu version | 23:13 |
| Angelus | Nafallo: and gnomefreak i didnt understand you | 23:13 |
| Angelus | it is the same version exacly | 23:13 |
| Angelus | even the abi | 23:13 |
| gnomefreak | Angelus: you compiled it and didnt change any config options? | 23:13 |
| Angelus | but adept is giving me un update to the repo version | 23:13 |
| Angelus | of course i changed config options | 23:14 |
| Nafallo | gnomefreak: if it's the exactly same name on the deb I'm pretty sure it compares what it has in the packagelist against the package that is actually installed. | 23:14 |
| Angelus | i change debian/config/amd64/config | 23:14 |
| gnomefreak | Nafallo: ubuntu version should rule over personal builds | 23:14 |
| gnomefreak | afaik | 23:14 |
| Nafallo | gnomefreak: that's what I tell you. | 23:14 |
| Angelus | hmm | 23:15 |
| gnomefreak | Angelus: just pin it if you dont want adept to complain | 23:15 |
| Angelus | is there way i can change the abi number? | 23:15 |
| Angelus | g | 23:15 |
| Angelus | gnomefreak: "how to i pin it" ? | 23:15 |
| Angelus | *do | 23:15 |
| gnomefreak | Angelus: its a bad idea to keep same version that you build as ubuntus build because if you get them mixed up it can be issues on bug reports ect... | 23:16 |
| gnomefreak | !pinning | 23:16 |
| ubotu | pinning is an advanced feature that APT can use to prefer particular packages over others. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto | 23:16 |
| gnomefreak | Angelus: my packages always have a higher version | 23:16 |
| Angelus | the guide says that doing "debian/rules binary" should generate a unique abi number, in my case it didn't it used same abi number as the kubuntu abi number | 23:17 |
| Angelus | gnomefreak: is there a way to generate a diferent abi number manually? | 23:21 |
| gnomefreak | Angelus: not sure im not a kernel dev | 23:21 |
| Angelus | so my only choise is pinning? | 23:22 |
| Angelus | Nafallo: do you know how to generate a diferent abi for a custom built kernel? | 23:25 |
| _Thelonius_ | hi, anyone here? | 23:37 |
| _Thelonius_ | i need help on the compiling of the kernel... | 23:37 |
| _Thelonius_ | i cannot enable a module and i dunno why | 23:37 |
| Angelus | guys | 23:55 |
| Angelus | i discovered that my kernel package has a smaller size then the ubuntu kernel | 23:55 |
| Angelus | so i think thats why its telling me to upgrade? | 23:55 |
