 |
|
My laptop is a Lenovo Thinkpad X61 (the convertible tablet version).
My kernel was created using the genkernel tool.
I seem to be having problems getting certain modules to load.
Urls listed are output from wgetpasting the log file of command$ >> command$.log
Here is lspci.
The salient points are on line 2 (display) and line 19 (wireless).
Here is lsmod.
It does not appear that the modules are being loaded.
/etc/conf.d/modules contains
but during the boot up process it says that it failed to load.
ifconfig does not list my wireless card, only eth0 which is my ethernet card.
if I run | Code: | | find /lib/modules/3.6.11-gentoo/ type f -iname '*.o' -or -iname '*.ko' |
then I can't seem to find thje relevant modules listed.
I am not sure what the relevant module for the intel gpu is, but I couldn't find anything that looked promising in the list.

bogamol,
Arr you sure it's compiled as a module 
| Code: | | grep CONFIG_IWL4965 /usr/src/linux/.config |

Evidently it was not. that command returned 'not set'.
so how do I build it in? i thought it was automatically in for genkernel.

use genkernel --menuconfig all
Dispute its name, it does not taylor anything for you. It is truly a generic kernel.
