| BrianHechinger[m | How would I go about building the kernel for US? Is the config somewhere that I could snag and just build from that? I'd like to play with some kernel stuff. | 09:49 |
|---|---|---|
| OvenWerks | BrianHechinger[m: I don't remember where right now, but the config for the current kernel is included in /usr/include/ | 13:41 |
| OvenWerks | BrianHechinger[m: maybe /usr/src/<latest-kernel> | 13:46 |
| BrianHechinger[m | is it any different than the out of the box lowlatency kernel you get building from the ubuntu patched kernel sources? | 14:31 |
| OvenWerks | BrianHechinger[m: I am not sure what you mean by that. I have not built a kernel really since modules came out in the late 1990s :) | 14:33 |
| BrianHechinger[m | Yeah, me either | 14:34 |
| BrianHechinger[m | which is why I no longer know wtf I'm talking about. :) | 14:35 |
| BrianHechinger[m | If I follow the directions here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/BuildYourOwnKernel | 14:35 |
| BrianHechinger[m | would I end up with a kernel the same as what comes from apt? | 14:35 |
| OvenWerks | BrianHechinger[m: what are you trying to achieve by building? | 14:36 |
| BrianHechinger[m | I'm curious why liquorix can run the audiofire lower than 64/3 but the stock lowlatency kernel can't | 14:36 |
| BrianHechinger[m | so I'd like to poke around | 14:37 |
| OvenWerks | I really don't know. I think you probably would if it uses the same config | 14:37 |
| BrianHechinger[m | ok, i'll have a play and see what I get | 14:37 |
| OvenWerks | Ah so you just want to play with the config | 14:37 |
| BrianHechinger[m | and maybe see about applying the zen patches to see if those are relevant at all | 14:37 |
| OvenWerks | you should be able to install liquorix along side and compare configs | 14:38 |
| BrianHechinger[m | the real big difference between the two kernels as far as I can tell is the zen patches and the scheduler. | 14:38 |
| OvenWerks | Possibly. The idea with the lowlatency kernel is to remain close enough to the generic so that all the graphics blobs still work and run | 14:39 |
| BrianHechinger[m | MuQSS doesn't play nice with threadirqs though so I'd like to take that out of the equation and get as close to stock as I can with my changes. | 14:39 |
| OvenWerks | BrianHechinger[m: I have gotten my audiofire12 to run at 16/2 with the stock lowlatency kernel | 14:40 |
| BrianHechinger[m | so did I when I was on 20.04 and the other hardware | 14:40 |
| OvenWerks | (using the ffado modules of course) | 14:40 |
| BrianHechinger[m | I really need to get a 20.04 install so I can rule that out and see if maybe it isn't the hardware | 14:41 |
| BrianHechinger[m | But I need another disk to do that, so I should get on that. :-D | 14:43 |
| OvenWerks | Run from a usb stick? | 14:45 |
| BrianHechinger[m | You know, that's a pretty good idea that I failed to think of. :-D | 14:45 |
| BrianHechinger[m | I had trouble booting from a USB stick after messing ubuntu up but that may have been related to the stick itself. | 14:46 |
| OvenWerks | loads slower but once running, everything is in memory | 14:46 |
| BrianHechinger[m | and/or I don't think the result of unetbootin is EFI compatible | 14:47 |
| OvenWerks | I use dd | 14:47 |
| OvenWerks | dd if=some.iso of=/dev/sd10 | 14:48 |
| OvenWerks | replace 10 with what you want to use | 14:48 |
| OvenWerks | I think mine is sdd these days | 14:48 |
| BrianHechinger[m | I was on a mac so I could have done that. Hmmm. | 14:49 |
| BrianHechinger[m | `Make sure to set your BIOS to boot from USB.` | 14:53 |
| BrianHechinger[m | well, that would have been it then | 14:53 |
| OvenWerks | on mine I just hit F8 duing reboot and choose then. | 14:54 |
| BrianHechinger[m | Yeah, it wasn't showing up | 14:54 |
| BrianHechinger[m | because my motherboard is set to only boot EFI | 14:54 |
| BrianHechinger[m | oh, possibly a unetbootin issue | 14:56 |
| BrianHechinger[m | because it looks like rufus can create efi bootable thumb drives and ubuntu had efi built into the iso since 14.02 | 14:56 |
