Kernel with archck and win4lin patches?

I've tried to patch the kernel with archck and win4lin myself, but compilation fails :-( Without the win4lin patch compilation is successfull... but I need win4lin for some windows app.

I thought the subject of the posting was clear that I was looking for someone who is willing to build this kernel (or has a PKGBUILD for this kernel).
If I was looking for someone to help me build this kernel, I would have post in "Kernel & Hardware Issues" and I would've put the error message and .config file in my posting... But I was just asking someone to build this kernel for me... hoping someone is willing to do this for me or maybe if the guy who made archck read my posting, he will include win4lin in future versions. Yeah, I know, that's lazy, but this is the place for this kind of favours.
Maybe the body of my posting created the confusion, next time I'll be more clear, I should say something like: "I'm looking for 2.6.13+archck6.2+win4lin... anyone?" instead of: "I've tried to patch and compile but it fails..."

So, instead of saying "it doesn't work", I should have said "I want it, can you make it for me or give it to me?"
Anyway, now that this thread has evolved this way, I'll post the .config and error message when I have access to my own computer (that's after the weekend).

How to create a custom kernel with initrd and ARCH patches

Hi,
I like the default kernel because everything seems to work well and I think the Arch kernel includes patches I need (such as the mactel patch). But some options that i would like to be enabled are not. in fact i would like to use powertop but i can't because it needs the CONFIG_TIMER_STATS option.
What I would like is a kernel based on the arch kernel but with a different config file. Nothing more.
if i look at the solution on the Wiki, I see that I have to add all patches the standard kernel have ... Moreover there is no initrd creation. i think i will need it if I use the Arch kernel configuration.
And if i use the kernel26 PKGBUILD, I must change the package name in order to keep my current kernel. It's easy to do in the PKGBUILD but much more complicated to do it in the kernel26.install file beacuse I have to change the filenames in /boot and I do not want to replace the kernel26 files.
So do you have any ideas how to compile my custom kernel ? Is there a better solution ?
Thanks.
Mildred.

If I understand correctly, you now have a PKGBUILD and associated files for kernel26mildred (or whatever you've decided to call it). Why do you think you would have to change the files again when kernel26 is updated?
don't the patches change from version to version?
anyways, i was bored so i wrote a little script... edit the configuration variables at the top and it'll do the work for you. just put it in /var/abs/kernels or wherever you have the kernel26/ at, chmod +x scriptname, and run.
if you're in /var/abs/kernels you'll probably have to run as root.
from my testing, it seems to be all working (looking at resulting files and no errors so far from makepkg); but i'm still building my test kernel with it.

Problem building kernel with makepkg

I tried several times building a custom 2.6.8.1 kernel with makepkg and the PKGBUILD file obtained from http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ker … with%20ABS. Unfortionately, the process allways ends with the following error:
ln: when making multiple links, last argument must be a directory
make: *** [_modinst_] Error 1
==> ERROR: Build Failed. Aborting...
Is there something wrong with the build file posted on the wiki or am I doing something stupid?

Err... I might have done a small mistake in my previous post.
I didn't try to build the kernel using the Wiki page above.
I've used http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Bui … with%20ABS
You can find below the revised PKGBUILD for that page. It might look weird, but it's very functional. It should also work with the stock kernels.
This PKGBUILD includes kernel version/revision autodetection. This helps when you apply patches which change those variables (such as ck, mm etc.). The changes I've made automatically change the package details (pkgname, pkgver, pkgdesc) to reflect the kernel changes.
Please test because I've made some cosmetic changes lately which might have scrambled something around there. If you find it working, please post here and I'll put it in the Wiki page above. Maybe it could also be used as a base for building kernels with the ABS.
Any feedback is welcomed. Enjoy.

Vanilla kernel with suspend2 support

Hey people,
I have started using the beyond kernel a while ago, because I wanted a precompiled arch kernel with suspend2 support. I used self-compiled vanilla+suspend2 kernels for a while before that, and they were very stable. With beyond, I first got strange bugs, hard to reproduce, suspending or resuming sometimes failed, and the newest version doesn't work at all.
Just for some testing, I compiled a kernel with the same config and patches as kernel26 AND suspend2 patches included. It seems to work great, much stabler than beyond when suspending.
What I am asking is, how many people would be interested if such a kernel would be maintained in community and what kernel modules they would need (I am planning to do rt2500, rt2x00, nvidia and maybe ATI, more if requested).
Please only submit your vote to the poll if you are either a suspend2 user or interested in using suspend2

Do you really want to go to all this trouble, maintain what is in essence a very small but new kernel patchset and all the relevant modules _just_ because suspend2 is a broken in -beyond at the moment? My Dog, I wish I had such time to spend.
Can you give me your definition of "at the moment" please? Or better, name a beyond release where suspend2 was stable. I switched to beyond with 2.6.16 and since then it was always unusable for me. With a vanilla kernel, suspend2 hasn't failed for me in a year or so. With beyond, it failed every time I really needed it.
Admittedly suspend2 may be _generally_ unstable with other patchsets but even still, it'll only take one bulletproof release to invalidate all you are suggesting.
I won't spend the rest of my life waiting for the beyond release that will work. I'd rather do something about it and provide a kernel that is stable and has that very important feature. (And as tpowa wasn't willing to include suspend2 in kernel26 when I asked him, this is the best shot).
Awesome - I dont think I could have said it in better words - however I did try above >
I have tried many patchsets that had suspend2=swap patches but the never worked or not as well as a vanilla kernel with just suspend2-swap patch.
Lets do it.

Sever issue with Xorg and Nvidia Drivers

I run a 2.6.20 kernel with Xorg and Nvidia drivers all from arch rep on a Asus NV6200. Everything works fine, except one thing. When I exit X, the monitor shuts down imediatly. It wont start up at all, not even by manual startup. I cant understand what happens. The configuration is correct, is done with the correct settings for my video-card and monitor taken directly from the documentation. I cant use my X server at all since several days ... I checked the logs and there are no EE's. Anyway ... here is the log. Help anyone can help, I cant use X at all.

No ... the problem is in the kernel that comes precompiled.
I did this test.
The first time I installed the kernel I unloaded nvidiafb since I dont like it.
When I install nvidiafb back something strange happends. Nvidia module fails to load.
The modprobe sais it cannot find the device nvidia.ko ... but it is there!
So my best guess is, there is something with the kernel. Any ideas?
Problem resolved, installed older driver

11.2.0.3.0 Required Postinstallation Tasks: Downloading and Installing Patches

I installed 11.2.0.3.0 on AIX 7.1. The postinstallation tasks begin with downloading and installing patches. I am not sure which patches or PSU to install. Following the directions in the installation guide, I go to My Oracle Support, then to Patches and Updates and specify Oracle Database and IBM AIX 64-bit. For "release" do I select 11.2.0.3.0, or do I select the seven releases from 11.2.0.3.0 - 11.2.0.3.6? If I select all seven the search returns 1293 patches. The instructions are obviously not telling me to download and apply all 1293 patches. I next searched for the most recent PSU and see that PSU 11.2.0.3.6 was published on April 17, 2013. What is the right thing to apply? Should I download only PSU 11.2.0.3.6 and apply that, or should I do something else not described here?
Thanks,
Bill

You should apply the latest 11.2.0.3 PSU (currently 11.2.0.3.6) - you do not have to apply all of the one-off patches

Pactching kernel with fbsplash.patch (SOLVED)

Never patched a kernel before and i'm having problems!!
This what i've done so far (as root):
1. Installed kernel26-ck (2.6.22-ck) with pacman and rebooted into arch using that kernel
2. downloaded the fbsplash via (genpatches-2.6.22-1.extras.tar.bz2)
3. put the splash.patch file into /usr/src
4. made a symlink for current kernel in /usr/src; giving /usr/src/linux --> /usr/src/linux/linux-2.6.22-ck
5. cd /usr/src/linux
6. patch -p1 < ../splash.patch
# NOTE: looking into using the abs method of PKGBUILD'ing a custom kernel with patches - hopefully i'll do better!!
The best way to do this is by emulating the abs versions of the standard kernel as described in these forums
1. copy the abs version of the stock kernel26
2. adjust the PKGBUILD to include spock's patch (not gentoo's)
3. makepkg
4. pacman -U the new kernel
Then get on with fbsplash!

I used to use kernel26-beyond kernel with fbsplash. Recently I found out that with this kernel any attempt to mount ntfs disk end with system hung. I switched back to standard kernel, but I want to still use fbsplash. I read the wiki several times but I can't figure out how to patch and compile kernel with fbsplash. Can anyone write step by step what shuld I do?
Thanks for any help in advice.

Not that it answers your question but I have been using the latest beyond kernel since it came out and have had no problem with mounting and using ntfs disks resulting in system hangs. Also I have recently been using ntfs-3g which allows safely writing to NTFS partitions. I am using it for backups on an external USB drive with an NTFS file system. Give ntf-3g a shot before patching the kernel.

How to patch kernel with this...

How can I patch the kernel with this files?
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/94542/
Archwiki about kernel compilation is really poor...

Given your apparent level of expertise, it is not reasonable to expect procedures like this to "just work" without putting some time and effort into them. In this case, I would strongly recommend learning about the patch command first, and then learning about ABS (Arch Build System) and PKGBUILDs. You are throwing yourself in at the deep end by attempting to modify the kernel PKGBUILD - people usually work their way up to that.
In other news - the 2.6.36 kernel has been released, and it includes this patch. The package is currently in the testing repo, and will soon be available in core. If the recommended learning above is not to your liking, I suggest you be patient until that happens. You could enable the testing repo either - but that's a whole other story.

Problem with HD6630M and catalyst on custom kernel

My laptop is a sony vaio sa with hd6630m and intel graphics as a hybrid graphics setup. i m using linux-sony from aur.
This is what i ve done so far:
i have followed the instructions in the catalyst wiki in order to install catalyst for custom kernel, with catalyst-hook
but after installing, aticonfig --initial -f throws no supported adapters detected. i m sure that my adapter is supported by the latest driver as some guys have successully made the setup.
i' ve read every thread i could find in google about my issue but i didn't make a progress although other have made it!
Things i tried:
- installing the .run package from ati manually
- reinstalling xorg and make a xorg.conf by my own (Xorg -configure does not work either)
- installing catalyst in default latest kernel
- i have not tried any other distro lately to see if i could make it work.
- the open drivers also do not work with my setup, i can only have intel card and blacklisting radeon. (vgaswitcheroo does not work either)
- many others i cannot recall
The two cards show up in lspci so it isnt a hardware problem
has anyone idea whats might going on or what i m doing wrong?

Hello All
I find out the solution myself !!!! Phew!!
In order to create a french page couple of things need to be done
1)In the configuration manager > display tab > chnage the language the to french
2) Log in to Application designer and create the same component and page that was created in English. You may not have to create the page from scratch since you would first create it in base language english and hence when you log in as french you will have the page but it will be distorted so it will be rearranged.
3) Any text that is there on the page will have to be rewritten in french if its is static text or else if it is being called from a message catalog it needs to be first written in English(this writes to PSMSGCATDEFN). Now go to PeopleTools>Translation>Translate System Definitions>Messages.
And create the french transaltion.For more details on hopw to create new language specific message read peoplebooks(type Translating Messages in the search of peoplebooks).
The language sepecific messages are written to PSMSGCATLANG table.
Now when you log in to peoplesoft as french you will see all you custom pages in french.
Have fun creating any global pages

Who is happy with Spot and Patch?

First let me say that I'm thrilled almost completely with Aperture in general. It pretty much solidified my transition to digital from film. I have a long workflow history with scanned slides and photoshop so I am quite used to and adept at spotting and patching my shots with their wonderful healing brush, clone tool, etc. I was excited about the prospects of using aperture for all the minute details that go into a workflow but the one glaring shortcoming is the spot and patch tool. I find the spot tool does a very bad job of using surrounding details to fill in a spot. You get a circular blur that might be accurate color wise but retains no detail. This is very apparent on skin. It's pretty much unusable. And the patch tool is a poor substitute for cloning. No matter what I do I cannot get it to blend in, I always see the circle.
I know what you all are going to say, just shoot it over to photoshop. This is what I've been doing but it really causes the size of your library to grow since you don't get the advantages of the smaller RAW file size.
Maybe in Aperture 2.0? Any one have any thoughts.

I've had very good success with the Spot and Patch tool, but you have to be very careful about the areas you work with. Chad's advice is very good---read the PDF. Note that the PDF says at the very outset under "Spotting Your Images"--"When the area around the blemish is continuous (such as a solid color) and doesn’t contain a distinct texture, you can use the spotting method to obscure the blemish by integrating the pixels that surround it."
In my experience, that advice is critical. Spotting and patching replace pixels with other pixels. Ideally, what you want to do is have Aperture take out an anomolous set of pixels (they don't match their surrounding pixels, hence they create a spot) and replace these pixels with ones that have the same characteristics of the surrounding pixels. So, for example, if the spot is in the middle of a very varied area, Aperture has trouble determining what you want as a replacement for the offending area.
The PDF tells us a lot about how to adjust the spotting and patching when the conditions for the operation are not ideal.

Hi, I have an old Pentium 3 machine on which I run Arch. If I try to boot the current stock kernel (or the ck kernel) the system freezes at boot. The system is still responsive, I can login via ssh but the screen is freezed. I nailed down the problem to KMS: booting with the nomodeset kernel option solves the problem. I have no problem in booting the lts kernel with KMS enabled, so I guess something changed between kernel 3.0 and 3.9 in this regard. Is anyone with old hardware experiencing this as well? It's not a big deal since I can live with lts kernel or disable KMS, but nevertheless I'd like to understand and possibly fix it. I can provide more informations on demand (right now I don't know what might be useful).
Thanks

snack,
From experience, I have found that trying to use Arch Linux (a leading edge OS) on very old hardware is like trying to plug all the holes in an old wooden leaky boat when all you have is composite materials. It becomes increasingly difficult to keep older hardware working when using leading edge software.
If you are happy to administrator the system using Arch then you may need to remain with linux-lts etc. The other problem I have run into is getting the older APG video cards to work & if you can get them working at a decent resolution getting them to render anything from a browser will bring the system to it's knees.
My suggestion is trying a few Linux systems that are purpose built to be used on older systems. You may even have some luck with "enterprise" OSs such as Scientific Linux or Centos as they use older kernels & software.

TP_STEP_FAILURE " ERROR WHILE APPLYING SAP NW 04 SR1 ABA AND BASIS PATCHES

Hi Freinds!!
..I have completed cinst, dbinst, client copy, jinst, xinst installation for XI 3.0 INSTALLAION ON ABAP + JAVA.
I have first applied PI_BASIS patches and middle of it, it displayed the message that pre-requisite are not met i.e. First SAP_BW , SAP_BASIS, SAP_ABAP pathces needs to apply.
While applying SAP_BASIS and SAP_ABA patches... I'm getting the following error message ...
" The import was stopped, since an error occurred during the phase IMPORT_PROPER, which the Support Package Manger is unable to resolve without your input..
After you have corrected the cause of the erro, continue with the import by choosing Support
Package > Improt Queue from the initial screen of the Support Package Manager.
The following details help you to analyze the problem :
-Error in phase : IMPORT_PROPER
-Reason for Error : TP_STEP_FAILURE
-Return Code : 0012 "
....So, what could be the cause of the problem ? Do I need to increase table space through brtools command at ora<sid> ?!!
Pl. help....
Many thanks in advance...
-Rupen Patel

Thanks a lot everybody.
Although I had upgraded Kernel Patch Level from 43 to 155, the real cause was, it seems that was maxed out Oracle Table, ..as I found it through ST22 tr code which inturn displayed a logfile which displayed the details of error. I used brtools to extend the tablespace of a table, reapplied the patches thorugh SPAM and it worked out quite smoothly.
Thanks again and Regards,

Installing Multiple Operating Systems with grub and Arch Linux

NOTE: Please keep in mind that there are many different ways to achieve this same result using various loop and ramdisk methods, read this with a separate window to jot down your comments and suggestions... this is ongoing for me so any help would be appreciated!
Read the full article at Install Multiple Os without cds
This is my first post and I plan on making this topic an official HOWTO with www.tldp.org.
I have been into the computer security scene since 1990, but I realized that I had very little experience with the various LInux, Unix, and alternative Operating systems out there.
I have a CD-RW drive but being a struggling computer security researcher I had no money for blank cd-recordables. What follows is how I managed to install various operating systems on my computer (1 hard drive) without having to burn to a CD the ISO and then boot from that.
I first partitioned my 120GB harddrive into 10 partitions, the 2nd partition is a small swap and the last partition is extra large because it holds all the ISO images..
I then wrote a small shell script to automatically download (I love wget!) the following.
OpenBSD
IpCOP
Libranet
Arch-Linux
Fire
Local Area Security
Packet Master
Devil-Linux
FreeBSD
Knoppix
Helix
Gentoo
Yoper-Linux
NetBSD
RedHat
Slackware
The script also downloaded Installation manuals and md5 checksums.. (let me know if I should post... its pretty unsophisticated
I installed Slackware (personal favorite) on hda1 using my last blank CD-R, note that I do not have a separate boot partitino. (Should I?). I also installed grub on the MBR. I love grub, if you read through the man pages and all info you can find about grub, you can learn a whole lot. Grub has much more features and capability than lilo, even though lilo comes installed by default with slack.
I organize my kernel situation as follows... In my /boot directory, I mkdir KERNEL, CONFIG, MAP, INITRD and that is a good way for me to keep my kernels and everything organized.. Another good way is a separate dir for each new kernel.
Since Arch-Linux is a solid distro, I'll use that as a first example.
Here is the Arch-Linux section of my shell script
goge Arch-Linux
$w http://puzzle.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/archlinux/arch-0.6.iso
$w http://unc.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/archlinux/arch-0.6.md5sum
$w http://www.archlinux.org/docs/en/guide/install/arch-install-guide.html
md55
cat arch-0.6.md5sum
md5sum arch-0.6.iso
md55
The first thing to do is to mount the downloaded ISO image so we can use it as if it were an actual CD.
mount -t iso9660 -o ro,loop=/dev/loop0 cdimage /mnt/cdrom
Where cdimage= the ISO image. EX. /usr/local/src/ISO/Linux/Arch-Linux/arch-0.6.iso
This mounts the iso as /mnt/cdrom.
Next you need to copy /mnt/cdrom to a separate partition for the booting process. So mkfs.ext2 /dev/hda9. ( I prefer reiserfs or even XFS to ext but if you use something other than ext2 you could run into some problems because some of the installation kernels and initrds don't include support for reiserfs and so can't recognize the files. Although you could use mkinitrd to create a new initrd with reiserfs support, that might be pushin it IMO... I use the 9th partition consistently for this. I know there is a "right" way to copy the /mnt/cdrom files so everything stays the way it is supposed too, using tar or cpio, but I'm lazy so I just do cp -rp.
(What is the tar or cpio commands to copy with correct permissions etc??)
So you mount the 9th partition as whatever, say /mnt/hd and then copy the files. Now what?
Now edit your /boot/grub/menu.lst file to include the specific options to boot arch-linux installation.
A good idea is to find the isolinux.cfg file somewhere on the distro cd, this will tell you what to include in the menu.lst.
Here is the section in my menu.lst
title Arch Install
root (hd0,8)
kernel /isolinux/vmlinuz load_ramdisk=1 prompt_ramdisk=0 root=/dev/rd/0
initrd=/isolinux/initrd.img
This should be self-explanatory. The root (hd0,8) is pointing to partition 9. So the rest of the commands start from partition 9.
When you experience problems, remember you can always edit the grub boot options by typing 'e' and then edit the section. Also, a good idea is to include several variations in your menu.lst so you can easily try other ways to boot efficiently. And, remember to read up on all the installation guides that come with your distro, specifically, hard-disk installs.
There are special cases, Gentoo, has a semi-new compressed filesystem called squashfs. BTW, this is AWESOME, so check it out. It has to be compiled into the kernel, so some work is in order, but use this recompile to optimize your kernel. You can get the squashfs patch for almost any kernel. I use the latest stable 2.6 kernel. Squashfs is incredible and although I don't think you need it to install from ISO, you do need it to expand the livecd.squashfs filesystem that comes with the cd.
Heres a sample Gentoo section from my menu.lst
title Gentoo Install
root (hd0,8)
kernel /isolinux/gentoo root=/dev/ram0
initrd=/isolinux/gentoo.igz init=/linuxrc acpi=off looptype=squashfs loop=/livecd.squashfs cdroot vga=791 splash=silent
A nother' tip is the shell that is provided if you experience problems, typically busybox or ash. The key tools to get you going from here is mount and chroot. Sometimes you will need to manually create a simulated file system and then chroot into it. For instance, you might have to create boot, etc, bin, directories on the target partition.
I generally install each OS onto the next partition (careful of the logical partition) and add it to my menu.lst after install. A good idea is after installation, copy the kernel and initrd(if there is one) to the slackware(or whatever) boot partition on hda1. I copy kernels to /boot/KERNEL/ and initrd's to /boot/INITRD, then menu.lst is more organized...
You then need to add an updated section to your menu.lst (just comment out the install section for later)
Here is the finished arch-linux section from menu.lst
title Arch Linux 6
root (hd0,2)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz26 ro root=/dev/hdc3
This doesn't use my convenient boot/KERNEL/vmlinuz26 as you can tell by setting the root to partition 3.
***NOTE: Make a backup of MBR using dd and save to floppy, also backup the partition table to floppy, using cfdisk or parted. And boot disks (I use 1 with grub, and 1 with slack, and tomsbootdisk) will invariably come in handy. Tomsbootdisk is recommended, and make the grub boot disk when you install grub. install to floppy.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
The final result after some fun experimenting, is when I boot, I have a cool grub boot screen come up with the option to boot into whatever OS I want, this is handy for multiple reasons. One good thing to do after this is to port scan and vuln scan each OS, after you update of course. Write this stuff down and you will know the weaknesses/strengths of the various OS's.
I can boot a custom Firewall, snort, or multiple honeypots using this procedure, as well as a graphical kde environment with a kernel optimized for graphics and my processor/architecture, or an environment devoted to forensics or even an environment suitable for programming.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
P.S. Some of the cooler alternative operating systems are BeOS 5, EOS, ER_OS, V2_OS, and my personal favorite Menuet. Menuet is 100% assembly graphical operating system that fits on a floppy. Its f'in money!
This should be a good enough example to get you started, this kind of thing should be learned and not just copied... Knowing how to do this stuff could prove to be exceptionally useful...

[Solved] Compiling a new kernel with ABS

I've made it through the whole process outlined in the wiki, up to installing with pacman. Pacman is telling me that the stock arch kernel is a conflicting package and wants to remove it. I want to hang on to it in case I've messed something up. What am I doing wrong? I know you can have two kernels installed. Using the traditional way I can get this, but I'd rather keep to doing things The Arch Way.

[Solved] Compiling kernel with 'localmodcfg' - 'brcmsmac' missing

Hi all,
I want to compile my own optimized ck-kernel with localmodcfg="y" which works mostly.
However there is a small problem.
The module 'brcmsmac' for the WLAN card is never included although it is listed in my modprobed.db.
Does someone have any clue what could be the cause?
Thanks
Radioactiveman

A minor fix for the patch by Steven Rostedt solved my issue.
I have compiled linux-ck 3.2.1-2 with localmodconfig today and brcmsmac is now included.
Marking the thread as solved, thanks to Steve.
