|

Hi everyone. New release, this patches against 2.6.8.1. Files and info are available at sourceforge.
No ebuild this time, it appears that the new version format breaks kernel-2.eclass, or so I'm told.
Thanks blutkind for putting this together, neenee and jasonf for testing. Enjoy. _________________ I give, you take, this life that I forsake

I'd love to give it a try, but sourceforge has a 0 (zero) length file for 2.6.8.1-love1.bz2. Not sure if I'm doing something wrong, or sourceforge is, but can't find any patch for 2.6.8.1 out there. |

It fixes a compile error between mm and nvidia, so that the drivers actually compile correctly. _________________ ArchLinux 64 Dev | 2.6.14 AMD64 |

Thanks! I'm downloading right now.
EDIT:
The staircasetonp patch doesn't apply cleanly. It wants to remove a bunch of wireless networking stuff, including some files that are not present in 2.6.8.1+love1. WTF? |

Need an ebuild to play with - can't seem to find those clear "how to patch a kernel" instructions that served me so well in the past |

A question, perhaps slightly off-topic... what is staircase and NP? I saw mention of these in previous threads, but didn't think to ask...
EDIT: Second question, this patches agains mm-sources-2.6.8.1-r3 or the gentoo-dev-sources of the appropriate version? |

mm-sources, gentoo-dev-sources is an entirely different patchset. _________________ This post has been over explained for newb-informing purposes.

I think I said it first and blutkind was reassuring you while I bounced up and down saying i'd eat you if you didn't

hmm I fixed that one way or another... Not really sure how though. I must have done about 15 different kernel compilations, finding the right one eventually... |

There is an ebuild available, just wasn't put on sf for some reason. I'll deal with that in a few.

The old ebuilds won't work because of the very surprising kernel version number, 2.6.8.1, because of the NFS problem in 2.6.8. The only way around that AFAIK is the method gentoo-dev-sources uses, start with 2.6.8, and then include the .1 patch in the patchset. |

Meh,
Code: | Latest quick hack to the 2.6 kernel: 2.6.8.1 |
2.6.8.1 should never have happened if the -rc were actually what they're supposed to be aka "Release Candidates", not "we'll add a few more patches then release", its a candidate for release..

But for me it works: I just changed the name of the ebuild to 2.6.8.1-r1 |
