Re: [CentOS] CentOS with Kernel 2.6.32 built-in

2010-05-30 Thread Eero Volotinen
2010/5/30 Adryan Pop mareshal.2...@gmail.com:
 I have a Asus laptop, from the new generation, and my network driver is
 present in the kernel since version 2.6.32(Jmicron). Is there any CentOS
 with this kernel? I tried to compile myself, but I failed. Is a bit harder
 than I thought.

 Is there any testing version of CentOS or some backports?

No?

Try to compile driver again and paste error messages to centos mailing
list.. usually you are only missing the development headers..

Anyway, is the centos really correct distribution for laptop ?

OK, I'll try first on a virtual machine.

1. I've install linux mint, takes 800 MB ram.
2. Ubuntu 10.04 350MB ram but was crashing.
3. Fedora 13, good but installed a damn package and didn't launch anymore.
4. debian Testing(good kernel) but no touchpad or  ati drivers.
5. back to mint, to make some researches.

Hi,

You could try Corey's kernels from here:
http://rpm.cormander.com/repo/grsec/kernel-stable/x86_64/RPMS/
Or http://rpm.cormander.com/repo/grsec/kernel-stable/i386/RPMS/ if you
run 32 bit.

You need the vanilla version (unless you want to mess with grsecurity)
and you may also need to regenerate initrd (notice this kernels have
ehci/uhci/ata etc builtin).

RedHat (and thus CentOS) backports esentual drivers and patches.  Even
though the kernel version is 2.6.18 (CentOS/RHEL 5), it contains bits
and pieces from newer kernels.  There is also the elrepo repository,
which contains a pile of additional kernel modules (drivers mostly) that
RedHat does not build.  Check the elrepo elrepo repository -- your
driver might be there.

 
 Thanks

You can find if ELRepo has the driver for you by going to FAQ #4 at:

http://elrepo.org/tiki/FAQ

Run the command (one line):

for BUSID in $(/sbin/lspci | awk '{ IGNORECASE=1 } /net/ { print $1
}'); do /sbin/lspci -s $BUSID -m; /sbin/lspci -s $BUSID -n; done

to get the the Vendor:Device ID parings. Then look through:

http://elrepo.org/tiki/DeviceIDs

To see if yours is there.

Hope this helps.

I tried to run it with rpm -ivh but I get this error

1: jme-kmod warning: user ajb does not exist - using root

and so on until

#[100%]

and when I execute rpmbuild /usr/share/SPECS/jme.kmod.spec

it said kernel-devel-i368 is needed by jme.kmod

tried to reinstall kernel-devel-2.6.18 but is already installed


any solution?

now it's installed, and you should be ready to use it

Have you checked to make sure your running kernel matches the
kernel-devel and kernel-headers RPMs?

uname -r
rpm -qa | grep kernel | sort

Err.. you are installing source.rpm instead of normal rpm package?

try package without .src.rpm just pure rpm provides the binaries that
you really need.
