I don't recall when make-kpkg started to create problems but you can notice that neither Ubuntu Kernel Team Wiki (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/) nor Ubuntu kernel packaging contains any reference to make-kpkg. Moreover the package which contains that utility (that is kernel-package) is in universe so that should be an evident sign. Feel free to use what do you want but keep in mind that isn't the official Ubuntu way to build a kernel (so it is unsupported).

i know there are a lot of suggestions going around, but have you tried falks PPA? and the kernels that are in there?

There is a dialog to install extra software, including a lowlatency kernel and realtime kernel. After instal this menu can be found by going to the menu, system settings, and open KXStudio Settings. On the 'Additional Software' tab you can check boxes to install the audio geared kernel. :) -Brian -- Ubuntu-Studio-users mailing list Ubuntu-Studio-users@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-users

I've seen no option to choose a kernel for live usage of KXStudio_10.04.2-LiveDVD_64bit. The default kernel is a generic kernel. ubu...@ubuntu:/etc/X11$ uname -a Linux ubuntu 2.6.32-21-generic #32-Ubuntu SMP Fri Apr 16 08:09:38 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux Apart from that, which file gives information about the used driver?

Hi Mike, downloading KXstudio is started. The ATI graphics on Linux is a PITA, that's why I switched to the NVidia card and I don't wish to switch back again. For the ATI I never got 3D support working on Linux, for the NVidia it depends to the used Linux, but even if I don't need 3D, since some years X is PITA regarding to set up frequencies and resolution for the monitors I used, resp. for the one I'm using now. For each Linux install I need to set up X by trial and error. Anyway, searching the web, I didn't find any information about the reason, that I don't get an initrd when building a kernel. Doing it the way I tried to do it for Ubuntu Studio does work for 64 Studio Hardy. I wonder what's different for Ubuntu Studio Lucid. Maybe I'll switch to Arch or Gentoo, because Ubuntu and Suse become more and more inscrutable for me. *waiting for the download, still 16 minutes to wait* Ralf > > On Sun, Oct 3, 2010 at 1:41 AM, Ralf > wrote: > Hi all :) > > building a kernel-rt failed.
