Hi,
Here is my situation:
- I have built a 2.6.26 debian kernel and generated a .deb file with
aditional patches applied and built into the kernel (built in as well as
modules).
I also need to use the madwifi driver for my atheros, chipset wireless
card. So how can I add the ath_pci module to my already built kernel
with my custom patches?
Can I grab the source for the kernel, apply my patches again and also
apply the madwifi patch? Is there a madwifi patch around that I could
just apply to the source of the kernel and then rebuild?
It's a bit of a pain since the kernel compilation does take a while, but
I guess I have to do it. So what's the best solution for this?
Does this deb replace your existing kernel? If so, I'd change that
first, so that you have a known-good fall back.
Then, I'd just try to add the madwifi patch to your patched kernel
and see what happens.
