i'm trying to follow this article: http://wiki.debian.org/rtl818x
But i'm very new to linux and i'm having trouble in installing the back
port kernel.
I know of the basic command which is
|apt-get -t lenny-backports install "package"
|
and I tried running this command -
aptitude -t lenny-backports install linux-image-2.6-$(uname -r | sed 's,.*-,,')
wireless-tools
but the above command failed. from they way i understand it, it's trying
to install backported version of wireless tools..
at the top of the article it says: Support for some RTL8187B chipsets
was introduced in Linux 2.6.27 - so i guess i'm after at least that kernel
I'm still unsure of how to search or install for the correct backported
kernel for this purpose. Could someone please help me and tell me what
command would install the backported kernel? thanks
