Hi, I am trying to recompile the kernel so I can use the ltmodem drivers. This is a first for me, so I still have to figure out a loot of things. Please, bear with me.
The docs said that the kernel-headers and/or sources are needed. So I check the kernel version with unuma -r, which told me that I am running 2.2.19pre17. Knowing that I invoked apt-get install kernel-source-2.2.19pre17 and also apt-get install kernel-headers-2.2.19pre17 Thinking I had succesfully loaded the needed libraries I then fired up the build_deb script that comes with the ltmodem sources. Bummer, it tells me it can't find the headers in /usr/src/linux /usr/src/kernel-headers-2.2.19pre17 /usr/src/kernel-linux-2.2.19pre17 Indeed ls shows me that there are 2 directories underneath /usr/src: /usr/src/kernel-headers-2.2.19pre17-compact /usr/src/kernel-headers-2.2.19pre17-idepci Which one of those two do I use? Uname doesn't specify either of them. There's also a file kernel-source-2.2.19pre17.bz2 in /usr/src I presume these are the kernel sources, but shouldn't they be unpacked somewhere? If I need to do that myself, where should I put them? Sorry to pester you guys with all these questions. I tried finding the answers on the net and in the doc directories, but was unsucessful. Grx HdV P.S. I have found the kernel how-to, but that didn't answer my questions. -- Support bacteria - they're the only culture some people have.
