Debian Configuration :: Remove The Packages Installed From Using Build Dependencies

Jun 15, 2011

Does aptitude(or apt-get) have the functionality to remove the packages installed from using build-dep? It just seems convenient if you want to remove a program that was built from source.

Debian Hardware :: NVidia Kernel Module Won't Build?

Apr 24, 2011

I can't get the nVidia kernel module built. Each time DKMS runs to install it (I'm trying to install it with the nvidia-kernel-legacy-173xx-dkms package on ), the build fails with a different error. Here is an exemple /var/lib/dkms/nvidia/173.14.27/build/make.log (I have a geForce FX 5200 on the computer I'm trying to install the nVidia driver):

Debian :: Blank Screen After A Kernel Build From Source?

Oct 15, 2010

I had a debian installation with kernel 2.6.32 I had a set of instructions to apply a patch to kernel which I followed to the T. The grub now shows the Debian installation with the old kernel and the Debian installation with the patched kernel.

The trouble is the system goes blank after attempting to start gdm3.

I have tried running in recovery mode and then typing startx but it only shows a blank screen.

Code: lspci | grep -i display
00:02.1 Display controller : Intel Corporation 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device (rev 02) If i boot with the old kernel, everything works fine. Is this an "X" window configuration issue. I tried X -configure but still nothing changed.

Debian Configuration :: Block/as-iosched.o Causes Kernel Build To Fail

Jan 15, 2010

I am working with linux-source-2.6.30 from squeeze.

The only changes I made in the config file were the processor type, and I disabled CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED_V2 to avoid some warnings from udev.

When I tried to build the kernel package, this is what I get:

(The bottom bit is from 'time').

Searching for this error turned up a plethora of results, none of which seemed relevant.

I see that it tells me to file a bug report, but I'm not sure if that is meant for the Debian kernel team or upstream.

Debian Configuration :: Slow Custom Kernel Build Amd64

Aug 17, 2011

I used make-kpkg to build the 3.0.0 source debian wheezy on a dual 3.4GHz Xeon/L1-16k/L2-1mb/800Mhz bus with 4GB PC2-3200 ECC ram and Ultra 320 SCSI, using CONCURRENCY_LEVEL=4 (2 hyperthreading cpus=4 cores). The build was slower than molasses in January! Top reported cpu usage total between 10% and 25%. Why won't the build use the amount of machine it has available. One footnote: I wasn't using swap space. It literally took over an hour to build the deb kernel package.

My notebook from 2003 is at least three times faster building the 3.0.0 debian kernel source. Is it possible that this might cause improvement: make -j4 KDEB_PKGVERSION=version deb-pkg

over

CONCURRENCY_LEVEL=4 make-kpkg --initrd --revision=123x kernel_image?

Could amd64 vs. i386 have some influence? Could the small processor caches on the XEON cpus have an effect. The 64-bit machine absolutely flies doing everything else. I'm miffed! I've used debian since woody, although I am not an expert, but I'm no slouch!

Debian :: Installing Kernel Sources - Make Command To Build Package Fails

Jul 22, 2010

I'm trying to build the package zaptel on debian, but I'm encountering two errors:
1- When I try to run the "make menuselect" command, I get an error stating that I need ncurses which is missing. I tried to get it installed but didn't get to do it yet.
2- After that, there's the command "make" I think it's to build the package. Yet again this fails, and the error I get is "you do not appear to have the sources for the 2.6.26-2-686 kernel installed".

Debian :: Determine And Remove Modules Load At Kernel Boot?

Jul 17, 2009

I was wondering how can I determine among the modules loaded at boot which of them are really necessary and which are not, in order to reduce the boot process time and have a more "elegant" system start.

I know this theme is a little bit of complicated because it depends of the user's point of view and demand a high knowledge of which things are happening in your system but I need somewhere to start improving the performance of my debian system.

Fedora :: Build New Kernel With Patches?

I need to build a new kernel. I was directed toI tried following the instructions but I think I may have ended up with way more than I wanted. After just over 3 hours the build exhausted the 5.2GB I had available and fell over. The .config file used was nearly twice the size of the one I supplied. Why was it changed?I don't need an rpm.Are the patches supplied with the 2.6.38 sources required or nice to have?

Slackware :: Can't Build VirtualBox Kernel Module In 13.1

Apr 26, 2011

I am using the 13.1 build scripts from slackbuilds.org. I modified the scripts to build 3.2.12 rather than 3.2.10.

In 13.1 the main VirtualBox 3.2.12 OSE package built and installed without errors. The VirtualBox GUI starts without errors.

Running the virtualbox-kernel-mksrctarball.sh script built a kernel source package without errors.

Yet the VirtualBox kernel module won't build. I receive the following error:

Code:

Fedora :: How To Build Kernel Headers Version Arch RPM

Oct 25, 2009

I'm building a Kernel on System A to use on System B. I've followed the walkthrough on [URL], and I get the following rpms:

kernel-debuginfo-common-i686-2.6.30.8-64.hymerfania_dbg.fc11.i686.rpm
kernel-firmware-2.6.30.8-64.hymerfania_dbg.fc11.i686.rpm
kernel-PAE-2.6.30.8-64.hymerfania_dbg.fc11.i686.rpm
kernel-PAEdebug-2.6.30.8-64.hymerfania_dbg.fc11.i686.rpm
kernel-PAEdebug-debuginfo-2.6.30.8-64.hymerfania_dbg.fc11.i686.rpm

kernel-PAE-devel-2.6.30.8-64.hymerfania_dbg.fc11.i686.rpm

What I don't get are any
kernel-headers-<version>.<arch>.rpm
Files. Don't I need them to rebuild modules and drivers on System B? Otherwise, how should I copy my new headers to System B? BTW, System B crashes when I try to build the Kernel on it, that's why I'm building debugger Kernels on System A.

General :: Configuring USB For BeagleBoard - Build The Kernel With USB Support ?

Mar 30, 2010

I have just started to work with BeagleBoard and built the Linux kernel (version 2.6.30.5) and download to the board and it start. I have also connected to the board over serial to Putty terminal.

Now I want to connect to the Beagle Board using USB instead of serial and I am looking for some info on how to do this.

My goal would be to connect to board over USB and then be able to:
* Download my own binary files/programs from PC over USB to BeagleBoard
* Communicate over USB instead of UART/Putty to get log and execute commands

Question:
How do I build the Linux kernel with USB support, meaning what settings should be ticked in menuconfig? Or is it already included?

How do I enable USB OTG in menu config?

I assume I would need some driver on my PC with Windows XP to connect to my BeagleBoard over USB. Were can I find this USB driver?

Programming :: Build Module Against Headers That Are Not From Running Kernel?

I'm trying to debug a module I programmed but I don't want to do it on the running host but against UML (don't want to reboot every 5 minutes).

The UML kernel I downloaded is 2.6.38.2. I have already downloaded the ubuntu kernel headers for this version (they belong to natty though I'm running maverick.... when I installed the .deb file with dpkg I had no problem at all).

Now I'd like to build said module against these headers. How can I do it?

Here's the makefile for my module code...
