have a sample kernel .config, so I can compile a small custom kernel on my vps? I tried to make it alone,but I removed stuff,so that my VPS won't start anymore. Virtualization is KVM, running on a Core 2 Duo.

I'm experimenting with 2.6.33-ck1 mainly because I want to try the BFS. I successfully configured and installed the patched kernel, but I'm experiencing various problems on the desktop. The biggest is Chromium not working at all, but there are several others, including graphical glitches in firefox. I'm sure I left some important module off or made a mistake for some settings My question is that is there a 2.6.33-fc12 kernel yet, and does it have a .config available? I'd like to load those settings in menuconfig and use them as a starting point to properly configure and complie a -ck patched kernel.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am using FC15.I need a kernel with a different configuration - with the "Preemptible Kernel (Low-Latency Desktop)" option in the Processor Type and features menu. I need this to support my firewire audio device. I would like to build a new kernel RPM from the SRPM so that i can keep a clean system with RPMs for all files, and I don't really want to manually override the kernel bypassing RPM.I am following **exactly** the process described there - I install the SRPM, unpack the source, then use the starting sample config files in the BUILD folder to create a new customised .config file with the new option, then copy this back to the SOURCE folder.
This works perfectly if I make a standard kernel. But I cannot get the process to work if I change the config file. Every time I compile I end up with exactly the standard kernel -- a vanilla i686 kernel, without my custom config.I believe the problem is that when I run rpmbuild to compile the kernel, this process overwrites my config option. I found that there is a script (merge.pl) which creates new config files dyanmically for all kernel options based on fragments in the SOURCE folder. It looks like the script never uses the config file that I am putting into the SOURCE folder.The wiki page suggests using this command to copy my custom config file cp .config ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES/config-`uname -m`
I'm running Ubuntu Server 11.04 with OpenSSH, trying to create an ssh tunnel (for web traffic) to it from my (also Ubuntu) laptop. This is the command I'm using to create the tunnel:
Code: ssh -ND localhost:8080 george@192.168.1.20 I had it all working on a virtual machine.. which was deleted What settings/lines do I need to change/add from the default OpenSSH config files to get tunnelling to work? I've Googled and AllowTcpForwarding is set to yes, as is X11Forwarding.. but it still doesn't work. Chrome can connect to the server, but says the connection was closed before any data was sent.
I want to start to play with "homemade" kernels. (To get some experiences in this subject). I want to do this step-by-step. I have already read a lot about this. I have a Fedora 10 running. So I want to start with this. I have read that there is a "special" way to create a kernel for Fedora. [URL] OK. I understand this +/-. When you build a new kernel with an other version number, you have to rebuild all the modules with this new kernelversion, and you have to install these also.
But : I want to start with modify only some parameters in my kernel config. Do I need to rebuild and re-install the modules also? Will it not be enough to rebuild only the kernel? (vmlinuz) Where can I find some information about the options I can disable in my kernel to speedup my system? (boot process ed). I want to suppress the loading of unneeded modules. I want to understand the options in menuconfig (and there are a lot of options ! ! )
Im using a Fedora 15 and im trying to compile a 3.0.0rc5 kernel. but im unable to get a config for my machine to boot up. i tried make localmodconfig it says
using config: '.config'
capifs config not found!!
Restart Config
and then i tried cp /boot/config-2.6.38.6-26.rc1.fc15.i686.PAE .config to override the default config but stil that doesnt work. work around to get a proper config so that i can boot the latest kernel here?
Supposed I have built customized kernel rpm four times in a row and the latest built kernel failed. If I still have all four kernel.xxx.rpm files, is there any way that I could get back the .config file used for each of those four builds? I really could not recall exactly what changes I had made in .config for each build.
View 3 Replies View RelatedSo my server running FC4 died last night and I decided to go ahead with the long-awaited upgrade to FC10 while I was rebuilding my server. I use my server for a number of things including, but not limited to: router, firewall, web server, mail server... I have a typical configuration process that I have followed since before fedora, and it has worked well for me up through FC4, but my usual config process doesn't work on FC10.
First of all, I don't want SELinux running, I didn't see an option to not install it during the FC10 setup, so how to I properly disable or uninstall it afterwards? Second, I was unable to even configure the server to route traffic from my internal network to the web, here's the process I usually go through for this:
[Code]...
I don't have a static IP from my ISP, so I'm not quite sure how to add the default route. I think I need to do something like "route add default gw xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx eth1" where eth1 is my external NIC, correct?
What else do I need to do to route traffic? I noticed that I wasn't even able to ping my server from the internal network even though they are on the same subnet, my server's internal NIC has an address of 192.168.7.1 and my computer on the network has an address of 192.168.7.2. If I can get this going to I have internet access again at the very least, I can move forward with the web server, email, etc.
I've read through these pages [URL] but can't seem to get Samba server working. I am using Gnome and I go to System - Administration - Services
In there I can see smb and nmb. Both are enabled, but both have a status of unknown. I can't seem to start or stop either of them. I can just enable or disable them. I've tried using the gui, as well as command line.
I'd really like to get this going as I'd like to copy files from my XP Pro box to my Linux box (F9). I have WinSCP, but am having permission issues and I can only copy to a folder on my desktop on the Linux box (I'd like to get this fixed too, but that's a different thread at a later time)
I'm trying to run extract-ikconfig because I've mistakenly deleted an old kernel config that I'd like to recover. However, when running the script from the latest (2.6.32.5) tree I run into this error:
Quote:
ERROR: Unable to extract kernel configuration information.
This kernel image may not have the config info.
Coincidentally, this happens with all of my kernel images. Is it a fixable problem? I should really set CONFIG_IKCONFIG_PROC next time..
I have a computer running Fedora 11. I wanted to use samba in my office. So I configured the /etc/samba/smb.conf ,but it did not work well : Windows can find samba,but when I tap in username and password,samba request them again , and the same thing continues in a loop. So I copied another computer's smb.conf (which is also a Fedora 11,samba runs well in this one).I copied this file to /etc/samba/ ,then samba can't satart up . I read from /var/log/samba/log.smbd.log : Unable to open configuration file "/etc/samba/smb.conf": Permission denied Even if I use: chmod 777 /etc/samba/smb.conf
why I can't login samba from Windows:

I am installing VMware-server-2.0.2-203138.i386 on FC 12
Have an error when executing vmware-config.pl initially. When I try again it has the message:-

I tried remove them using modprobe e.g.
modprobe -r -v vmemctl the response was "WARNING: All config files need .conf: /etc/modprobe.d/anaconda, it will be ignored in a future release."
Subsequently I tried vmware-config.pl, but have the same error.
I just done a brand new install of fed12 and did all the yum updates. Apache seems to start ok and I always liked the http config tool but it won't run on Fedora 12. I downloaded and installed system-config-httpd.noarch 5:1.4.6-1.fc12 and it all went fine but when I try to start it I get the usual box asking for my root password, I type it in and press enter, the box disappears and then....nothing. If I run system-config-httpd in a terminal I get the same box asking for root passowrd but when I enter it I get a long scroll of text which ends with:
line 4: 2137 Aborted (core dumped) /usr/bin/python /usr/share/system-config-httpd/ApacheConf.py
I don't know what causes this. Is there any way to get the http config tool working?
I've got a situation where I would normally use NFS, but cannot. So in it's place I need to use a samba share (even though it's linux -> linux). I need it completely open and world writeable as if I had done an rw in an NFS export. I thought I had it as when logged in as a user I can edit delete etc. however the apache user seems to be struggling with creating files.
Here's my smb.conf as it stands.

security = user
passdb backend = tdbsam
unix extensions = no

[sites]
comment = Sites Directory
path = /var/www/sites
public = yes
guest ok = no
write list = siteusr
writeable = yes
create mask = 0777
browseable = no
security mask = 0777
directory security mask = 0777
note that the drive is mapped as user siteusr

I'm trying to config a customer's samba server to use a MS 2003 SBS for auth. The samba is for file sharing only config'ed with disk quota's. Currently the samba is config'ed for auth = Users.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI would like to compile my own kernel. I am familiar with how to do it and have done it in the past so I'm not looking for a how to compile a kernel. In the kernel config are many, many options. In the past when I compiled kernels I always wondered about what is needed and used. What is the best way to determine what is currently used, not set or enabled in the existing config, but actually used by my existing kernel?I have a general idea of what is loaded and could do trial and error, turn this and that off, recompile, etc but is there an easier way?

I've read about some sort of tools that help with kernel configuration.Can anyone tell me anything about these?It seems that you use the tool(s) on a running system. You use the running system for a while. The tool(s) gathers data and leaves bread crumbs. The tool(s) then process the bread crumbs to create a candidate config file for a fresh kernel build. The goal is a kernel build that contains parts you actually use and omits parts you don't use or don't need -- all the while using arcane knowledge of dependencies among various kernel features to (hopefully) avoid building a still-born kernel.

View 14 Replies View RelatedI have a HP ProLiant DL580 G2 running a freah install of Fedora 9. After doing all updates and re-booting the sys monitor only shows 3.7gb of memory with actual 8gb installed.
Not sure what is going on. Current kernel version is: 2.6.27.9-73 fc9 .i686
I was under the impression that F9 was a PAE kernel. But doesn't look like it to me?
Do I need to upgrade to Fedora 10? Or install a PAE kernel?
If a new kernel, what do I do? I'm new to Fedora 9 and big iron servers.
Can I use the config for my current kernel (the jessie 3.16 one), and use it to build a more recent kernel (3.18)? Do I just copy across the config and try and build with it, or is there some tool that will bring across the existing config but also set up reasonable defaults for any new options in the newer kernel, and any other migrations that might need to be applied?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm recompiling my kernel on a dell latitude c600 running lenny as I type, and it's taking forever, so far upward of 4 hours.I think I'm getting drivers for ever piece of computing hardware since the univac So I googled "a kernel conf creator" and got [URL]... Its a nice, clean method for finding what hardware your using... you just run lspci cpuinfo make xconfig and put in all the info yourself. So I was thinking: this is exactly the kind of dull, repetitive behavior that computers were made for. Is there a program that can find my hardware info, and make the.config itself, with very little user input?Or should I reinstall debian on another partition and steal the .config from it? Or should I man it up and do it myself?
