I am trying to compile the kernel version 2.6.20-15 on my Linux 10.10 with 2.6.35-22 kernel. Additionally, this is my assignment.After I download kernel, extract it and create a new .config file for the new kernel I am trying to command;make-kpkg clean fakeroot make-kpkg --initrd --append-to-version=-custom kernel_image kernel_headers.after the second command I get an error an it says "nothing to be done" but I expect to have some .deb files for the new kernel. In addition this I have added a new system call to the kernel 2.6.20-15.

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?

I have an issue that is fixed by changing the lpfc driver to run using MSI interrupts. This is done by adding "options lpfc lpfc_use_msi=2" /etc/modprobe.conf.local file.
Is there a way to make this change using kernel boot parameters?

AFAIK, in addition to implementing the standard C library, glibc provides wrappers for system calls, threading support, and basic application facilities. So because of that, glibc that will be used on my target system should be built based on the kernel version running on my target, right?
Based on the above, I am trying to build a glibc version for my target machine's kernel. However, I don't know to to build a glibc library for a target system and also where on the target's filesystem should be put? In which location Linux will start looking for the libraries required for a program to run (should I create an /etc/ld.so.conf file)?

Since new kernel 3.0 update I cannot rebuild vmware modules
Quote:
sudo vmware-modconfig --console --install-all Unable to initialize kernel module configuration
how to do that. Where do I insert the "CONFIG_LOCALVERSION" line.
Quote:
Same here. This seems to be due to the kernel version being "3.0" instead of "3.0.0". Recompiling the Kernel (and all modules based on it, e.g. nvidia) with
CONFIG_LOCALVERSION=".0-ARCH" allows me to compile the modules and run VMware.

I am new and recently almost one month back installed debian linux stable 8.2 came from windows. Today I upgrade my debian stable 8.2 to testing and everything works fine. Just one thing is that I checked kernel and find :
uname -r
4.2.0-1-amd64
dpkg --list | grep linux-image
ii linux-image-3.16.0-4-amd64 3.16.7-ckt11-1+deb8u5 amd64 Linux 3.16 for 64-bit PCs
ii linux-image-4.2.0-1-amd64 4.2.3-2 amd64 Linux 4.2 for 64-bit PCs
ii linux-image-amd64 4.2+68 amd64 Linux for 64-bit PCs (meta-package)
I am first time removing old kernel so cant take risk from searching the solution from google so come here, what and how to remove that includes everything like kernel image and other old kernel files not needed.
One more thing I just realised and saw on details in settings gnome that
Base : Debian GNU/Linux stretch/sid 64-bit
Is this right as it says sid in the line but i just changed my sources.list to testing only and then aptitude upgrade and full-upgrade then just.

I have Kubuntu 10.10 and Back Track 4 (BT4) Linux installed on my system. I think BT4 is based on Ubuntu 8.10.
I have the following line for my kernel boot options in /etc/default/grub file.
Code:
I need the rootdelay option for the Kubuntu 10.10 kernel but the BT4 kernel does not need it. But looks like setting this has a global effect and it waits for 80 (seconds ?) even when starting the BT4 kernel which is not required.
So is there a way to give the rootdelay option only to the Kubuntu 10.10 kernel and not to the BT4 kernel.

The problem I'm facing is that I can't use my headphone. Sound works, but not the headphone. See my ealier thread. It was suggested to edit the module options, but I don't quite know which buttons to push.

I was having some problems with a "memory exhausted" error, I have come to find out that my kernel is not built for largefiles. What options in my .config do I need to have enabled for Large File Support? I diff'd my current .config and Slackware's huge config, because I found out the huge kernel could handle ~3G files, but did not see anything that looked related to largefiles.

I'm just wondering what the options are if one wants to try a 'newer' kernel and/or XServer version.
Either on an installed system or virtual machine (for e.g., Squeeze in VirtualBox).
On an installed system, on Debian Sqeeze (or Testing), if one wants to upgrade to 2.6.36 kernel and/or XServer 1.9, what are the options? I noticed that 1.9 is available in experimental so one has to enable and load the experimental package repository?
As for the kernel, I guess there's a few options? One includes installing the liquorix kernel? Best choice/alternative is compiling?

I have a problem with my touchpad, sometime it doesn't work at start-up and this happens randomly.
I have looked around and maybe I could solve this with the procedure described in [url]
I'd like to add the equivalent of to kopt in the old grub.
I looked into the grub2 documentation, [url]
I am not even sure if I have to modify /etc/grub.d/40_custom or 10_linux.

I want to compile a kernel to add a few options that are not enabled in the huge-smp-2.6.29.6 that comes with slackware. specifically, i want to add TASK_DELAY_ACCT and TASK_IO_ACCOUNTING so that I can use iotop. I just want to add those 2 options to the new kernel, everything else I'd like to keep the way it is as the system has been running just fine. Will running 'make menuconfig' in /usr/src/linux default to the options that are used in the stock kernel?

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?

* Linux 2.6.18 with Xen 3.4.x support source tarball, updated for Xen 3.4.2
* CentOS kernel-2.6.18-164.11.1.el5
Linux 2.6.18 with Xen 3.4.x have old cciss and scsi drivers. It don't support my hardware.
CentOS kernel-2.6.18-164.11.1.el5 works normaly, but was not compiled with xen 3.4.2.
How can I patch Linux 2.6.18 kernel or upgade CentOS kernel to the latest xen?
