As steubens points out, kernel versions greater than 2.6.33 are not buildable on karmic using the KernelTeam wiki instructions ( https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/GitKernelBuild ). Several generated header files have been separated from source headers:
include/linux/utsrelease.h ----> include/generated/utsrelease.h include/linux/compile.h ----> include/generated/compile.h include/linux/autoconf.h ----> include/generated/autoconf.h A kludgy workaround is to link the necessary files back to include/linux. Alternately, the attached patch can be applied to kernel-package (in /usr/share/kernel-package). Please note that the patch is for kernel- package-11.015 (karmic). This should already be fixed upstream in kernel-package-12.032. FYI - the build of 185.18.36 nvidia drivers (stock karmic) via dkms is broken for the same reason (and a couple others). ** Patch added: "kernel-package-11.015-2.6.33.patch" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/40946628/kernel-package-11.015-2.6.33.patch -- modules_image fails due to looking for UTS_RELEASE in wrong file https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/204698 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
