The root cause of this issue on grub-devel mailing list.

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/grub-devel/2009-08/msg1.html

You can read more information on

The last message i sent is in cc with xen-devel mailing list, so I hope 
someone of that list will take care of this issue.


Kind regards,

oldschool xen kernel on sid

2009-10-23 Thread Marco Nenciarini

I've applied latest forward ported patches from

http://code.google.com/p/gentoo-xen-kernel/downloads/list

to the 2.6.31 experimental package.
The resulting kernel works well for me (at least on amd64 arch).

Fell free to reuse my little work

and what is your purpose?


I need to have a kernel with a newer iscsi support than the lenny one, 
so while I'm waiting for pv_ops inclusion in mainline kernel I'm trying 
to make a dom0-enabled kernel package with patches from suse/gentoo.


I don't want you to do anything, only I want to share my efforts, just 
in case of someone needing of it.

module-assistant fails to build all modules i need (nvidia-kernel, openafs
and madwifi) with an error like the following:

This issue make my system totally unusable with this kernel (no X, no network)

Bug#282195: kernel-image-2.6.9-1-686: More detailed info

2004-12-11 Thread Marco Nenciarini
Package: kernel-image-2.6.9-1-686
Version: 2.6.9-3

After some investigation this is the result:

As you can see, the error is that the iptable_nat module depends from ipfwadm!

   Hi,
 
 May be I'm wrong, but I think you can not load iptables modules once
 you have already loaded the ipfwadm one (saw it in your lsmod).
 

Ok, you are right. But now the problem is: who have loaded ipfwadm module?
With the old kernels all work ok.

I'm trying to find where is the error.

Bye (and tnx)

 BTW, the linux-kernel-headers package seems to be based upon
 a bk snapshot 2.5.999-test7 grabbed in Oct 2003.
 
 Is this still safe?
 

Ok, you are right, is my fault. But nvidia modules doesn't use it.  I
use kbuild that search page.h in 
/lib/modules/`uname -r`/build/include/asm/ directory.

I think NVidia isn't the only user of include/asm/page.h

Every kernel module that include include/asm/page.h was broken without
this patch.
