Yes, it occurs it's all what's needed- though it will require some more work - e.g. the patches for cross-compile fail... That's why I've asked. Anyway it's not important immediately, just observations, when trying to catch up with newer kernels. kp > > kp > > > >> On 02.10.2016 19:25, kp kirchdoerfer wrote: > >>> Hi; > >>> > >>> I've had some spare time and was looking at what is ahead . > >>> > >>> I've updated for testing uclibc-ng to 1.0.18 (which seems about 100 kb > >>> smaller) and kernel 4.7.6 (which seems about 100 kb larger). > >>> > >>> A few packages are failing to compile - notably ipt-netflow (looking > >>> into > >>> the src repository it claims to be for kernel up to 4.4; and both > >>> packages providing Intel network drivers (igb and e1000e) fail to > >>> build. > >>> > >>> Is there any advantage to use these compared to the ones in the kernel > >>> source? > >>> > >>> kp > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, SlashDot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ leaf-devel mailing list leaf-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-devel
