Re: Trouble compiling generic kernel
Well, I've run into another problem with the compile that folks might find interesting. All while running as the only user account on this machine (other than root), I ran into a very interesting permissions error at the end of the "make-kpkg kernel_image" process. I did the compile as root successfully after seeing this error the first time, just to see if it was user related, and the compile completed successfully. In fact, I'm running 2.6.35-rc6 right now, no problems. But I erased the directory and un-tarred the generic kernel source again just to be sure, and received the same permission error again. I'm just not sure if this is a debian "make-kpkg" error or not...

When using kernel-package, make sure that you install the latest version
(12.036). Earlier versions will likely not work, in particular the
Lenny version is known to be broken with kernels >= 2.6.33.

Oh yeah, sys/eventfd.h is in the libc6-dev package. But not in Lenny,
only in Squeeze. Since you probably don't want to upgrade libc6, you
should build the kernel without CONFIG_LGUEST: under "Virtualization",
uncheck "Linux hypervisor example code (NEW)". This should hopefully do
the trick.

Not really. The libc6-dev package is too old, lacking sys/eventfd.

Strangely enough, I wasn't. Not quite _that_ novice I guess. :^)
Now on to something new: Build failure! Who'd'a thought? I changed
back to single-concurrency just to make sure that it wasn't
related, "make clean", then tried again with the same result.

Got it, and it works fine. Thank you. Not compiling often (as you can tell), I note that the compile is using only one cpu of 4 at a time. I'm sure there is a parallel compilation tweak somewhere. If it is easy, fine. If not, then forget about it, I'm not in any rush.

Trouble compiling generic kernel
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi. Lenny, up to date with security and backports. I pulled down 2.6.35-rc6.tar.bz2 from kernel.org, and would like to try compiling it to see what's Coming Soon To A Disto Near Me. Its been about 9 years since the last time I compiled a kernel, but I'm having trouble I didn't have then. For some reason, none of the "make" things that I've used in the past are working now: === $ make xconfig CHECK qt * * Unable to find the QT3 installation. Please make sure that * the QT3 development package is correctly installed and * either install pkg-config or set the QTDIR environment * variable to the correct location. * make[1]: *** No rule to make target `scripts/kconfig/.tmp_qtcheck', needed by `scripts/kconfig/qconf.o'. Stop. make: *** [xconfig] Error 2 === === $ make menuconfig *** Unable to find the ncurses libraries or the *** required header files. *** 'make menuconfig' requires the ncurses libraries. *** *** Install ncurses (ncurses-devel) and try again. *** make[1]: *** [scripts/kconfig/dochecklxdialog] Error 1 make: *** [menuconfig] Error 2 === === $ make gconfig * * Unable to find the GTK+ installation. Please make sure that * the GTK+ 2.0 development package is correctly installed... * You need gtk+-2.0, glib-2.0 and libglade-2.0. * make[1]: *** No rule to make target `scripts/kconfig/.tmp_gtkcheck', needed by `scripts/kconfig/gconf.o'. Stop. make: *** [gconfig] Error 2 === "make config" did work, but working through everything in text is enough to make a sane person INSANE. I was surprised with the failure of menuconfig, since I have all of ncurses installed and the "ncurses-devel" suggestion isn't a Debian package name anyway.
