Public bug reported: First: it is VERY hard to recompile kernel in Ubuntu :( I can not find proper information about this.
I done (i do not know why, but it is written in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild, so i do it): cd /usr/src/ sudo apt-get install linux-kernel-devel fakeroot kernel-wedge kernel-package sudo apt-get build-dep linux-source apt-get source linux-source then i receive linux-source-2.6.22.tar.bz2 i untar it (using mc) and go to linux-source-2.6.22. i do make clean, then make menuconfig: make

GREAT problem, if i can not recompile kernel!!! Also: where i can find information how-to rebuild kernel with some patch? In Gentoo it is easy to do, but in Ubuntu unfortunately it is hard. ** Affects: linux-meta (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- can not compile kernel from sources - have an error https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/158968 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
