Hi Rigels,

(Sorry for the top posting - using MS Outlook WebApp)

You can use "/boot/config*" (from your meego platfrom) as ".config" for 
compiling your new kernel.
Also try "make kernelrelease" command to check the release number and make sure 
that it matches with the destination kernel.

Hope this helps!

Cheers,
Ameya.

Subject: [Meego-kernel] radio-timb driver magic version conflict after applying 
a patch and kernel compile

Because I had a problem with the radio-timb driver included in the 
2.6.35.3-14.2-ivi MeeGo release, I had to apply a driver patch,
kindly reported by the driver developer at the following link 
http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg00809.html .
Then I compiled the kernel ( downloaded from 
http://repo.meego.com/MeeGo/releases/1.1/core/repos/source/kernel-2.6.35.3-10.3.src.rpm
 )
under another linux distro on an intel x86 cpu.
When the compilation process ended, I copied the radio-timb.ko file in a pen 
drive,
then I renamed the old driver and copied the new one in the Meego platform.
When I try to
# insmod radio-timb.ko
or
#insmod radio-timb

i get the following error : -1 invalid format
executing
#dmesg
gives the following error

 radio_timb: version magic '2.6.35 SMP mod_unload modversions 686 ' should be 
'2.6.35.3-14.2-ivi SMP preempt mod_unload PENTIUMM '

So the version of the driver is different and that's the problem I guess.


What should i do in order to make the patch driver run on Meego?
How can I modify the Makefile in kernel folder in order to fix this problem ?

Any help is appreciated.
