[SOLVED] Where to find older kernel headers

Hi,
I'm currently stuck on kernel 3.8.11-1 x64 on my netbook as kernel 3.9.2 won't boot - basically hangs while grub tries to start the kernel. Had the same issue with Fedora so I know that it's kernel specific....
Unfortunately my NIC requires that I build the compat-wireless drivers in order to get the alx module in my system. Using the older kernel however, where do I find the headers for it?
Basically I need to populate my /lib/modules with the 3.8.11-1-ARCH bunch; unfortunately my USB boot stick has version 3.8.10 which won't work.
Can anyone help me out?
Also why do the older kernels and related modules etc... get removed so fast from the repo? Shouldn't the older ones be kept for a while at least so if anyone (like me and plenty of others) have issues they can revert back easily without needing to downgrade by finding an older package from somewhere?
Thanks.

Excellent. Please remember to mark your thread as [Solved] by editing your first post and prepending it to the title.
Ok did a bit of "housekeeping" and appended [SOLVED] to all my 3 threads so far :-)
P.s. I like Arch it seems a lot as it's kinda hackery since you have to build from scrach and the chroot install is cool too - I think it suites my style of being very CLI heavy
Coupled with a 'real' DEC VTxxx terminal not emulation I think Arch would be the best thing since Ethernet!!

Where to find older versions of Safari?

I recently updated to Safari 5.0.2 and my computer is now constantly crashing. I want to revert back to 4.1.2 -- can anyone tell me where to find it (and ideally how to revert back)? Thanks!

HI and welcome..
If you want you can revert to Safari 4.0.5, instructions here. Downgrade from Safari 5.0 to Safari 4.0.5
If your computer is crashing, it may not be Safari causing the problem. Boot from your install disc, run Disk Utility in case there are errors on the startup disk that need repairing.
Insert your install disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
Go to Installer menu and launch Disk Utility.
(In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first from the installer menu)
Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
Select First Aid in the Main panel.
(Check S.M.A.R.T Status of HDD at the bottom of right panel. It should say: Verified)
Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
When you are finished with DU, from the Menu Bar, select Utilities/Startup Manager.
Select your start up disk and click Restart
While you have the Disk Utility window open, look at the bottom of the window. Where you see Capacity and Available. *Make sure there is always 15% free space.*

Where to find older drivers?

Where can I find legacy drivers for an older MS-6580 Mainboard (VER 10A). A coworker tried using the newer drivers that ship with the newest version of the board but he said they do not work.
Are there older drivers out there that work? or are the newer drivers backward compliant?

Where to find older iPod OS updates

I've found it frustrating trying to find the older updates to Mac OS, perhaps it is just my ham-fisted search techniques, but I'm looking to see what updates have been issued for a 1st Gen iPod Touch and all I can find is 2.01 (and iTunes 8.x). I don't wish to upgrade to 8.x at this time. Is there anything incremental after 1.1.4??
Thanx.

The next firmware version for an iPod touch is 1.1.5, but none of the iPod touch updates can be downloaded outside of iTunes.

Help with where to find older activation codes

I am trying to find out where I can locate an activation code on my original purchase of Lightroom that I made a few years ago. I upgraded to Lightroom 4 a couple of months ago and had it installed on my laptop but I just recently bought a new desktop and I am trying to download it but Adobe is asking for the orignal activation code not just the upgrade activation code and I can't seem to locate it anywhere. How do I get this number?

I believe you are referring to the serial number. If you have registered your software you can find details on how to locate your serial number under your account at http://forums.adobe.com/message/3987968#3987968.

[SOLVED] Where to find pacman install log

I was wondering whether there was any sort of install log for pacman.
Also, if I wanted, how could I remove any packages installed between two specified dates (perhaps using the information provided in this log).
Thanks!

Default location: /var/log/pacman.log
man pacman.conf:
LogFile = /path/to/file
Overrides the default location of the pacman log file. A typical
default is /var/log/pacman.log. This is an absolute path and the
root directory is not prepended.
Also do check man pacman! And search the forums before posting!
Documentation is there for a purpose.

Where are the kernel-headers?

I'm trying to compile a gamepad driver but I don't know what directory to put into the makefile for the KERNEL_DIR section. The guide I'm following is for Ubuntu and it has it in /usr/src but I can't seem to find a "kernel-headers" file.
Thanks,
Nathan

Make sure that you have the kernel-headers package installed. Then you'll find them in /usr/src/linux-2.6.24-ARCH.

Kernel Headers without internet connection without pacman -S

Hi all,
I need to rebuild the wl module after upgrading to kernel 2.6.32. When I compile the source code it gives an error saying I have to install kernel headers. The problem is that I dont have access wired internet so I have to download the kernel headers to another computer and move it to mine with a usb stick. Is there any way to find the kernel headers as a package and install it with the command pacman -u ?
Thanks in advance
Regards

Hi again,
The problem is solved. First of all, I just realized that I opened the topic with wrong subject title. Sorry for that.
As I said before, I could only reach wireless internet, but in order to make the wireless work I had to compile wl module. But, after I performed the upgrade to kernel 2.6.32, I needed the kernel header in order to compile it. What I did was downloaded the kernel26-headers 2.6.32.9-1 package from here: http://repos.archlinux.org/wsvn/package … re-x86_64/ then I downloaded the kernel-2.6.32 and patch-2.6.32.9-1-Arch files as indicated in PKGBUILD file.
Then I place these two files same folder with PKGBUILD. I changed the source lines in PKGBUILD and ran
makepkg --asroot
pacman -U <created_package_name>
then I was able to compile the necessary module.
I am newbee for Archlinux. Hope I have done the right things so far.
Thanks

Older kernels? Else I can't burn cd's I think

Heya,
I tried to burn cd's today, but I can't and it seems there are some bugs in kernel 2.6.8 ...
http://www.k3b.org/ (in the news-section)
Where can I find older kernels ? The latest version of 2.6.7 or so ...
Thanks,
Michel

well you can use makepkg to compile the old 2.6.7 build. it should only take an hour or two if you have a highspeed connection. like i say you just have to dl the files from the cvs archives set them up in their own directory and run makepkg and later install the resulting package.
or you can look in your cache to see if you ahve a copy of your earlier kernel. (/var/cache/pacman/pkg)

Kernel headers for 2.6.17

Where do I find the kernel headers package for linux-2.6.17-ARCH, the new kernel? I searched the repos and only found headers for 2.6.12.

Well, I'm trying to reinstall vmware after the big upgrade today. I have vmware 4.5.1. During the install, while running the vmware-install.pl script, when it asks for the directory of the C header files that match the currently running kernel, I enter: "/usr/src/linux-2.6.17-ARCH/include". Then I get this error message: "The kernel defined by this directory of header files does not have the same address space size as your running kernel." I've tried several of the directories under /usr/src/linux-2.6.17-ARCH, but none of them work. Any ideas?

[solved] building the kernel headers for custom kernels

well, ive been building several different kernels for my laptop, so that i can test stuff. but ive got a problem with the kernel headers.
ive mirrored the arch kernel's PKGBUILD and modified some naming to get a custom kernel. but when i try to build a custmo module, it complains the headers are broken. (example, vbox_build_module).
im pasting the pkgbuild here for future reference...if someone sees something thats plain wrong, please say so.
thanks

for anything that might be missing. The error message when compiling would give you more of a clue. Off-hand, you may need to add 'generated', as I recall I needed that when the kernel moved to 2.6.33.

[SOLVED] Where do I find "applets" for linux?

Hi, do you know those things we put on linux desktop that measure cpu, memory, disk usage, network, etc? So, how are they called: applets, gadgets, monitors, icons, plugins?
I think they are so cool!! They make the system really beatiful, and there are many of them that we can customize a lot.
I'm looking for some to use with WindowMaker, AfterStep and LXDE.
But I don't know where to find them (neither how to call them), so, could anyone please tell where to find them?
Thanks!!

Yeah, that's it, maybe widgets is a better name to describe them.
Actually what I was looking for is a site specialized on it, that contains lots of them. Do you know any?
After a quick search on google, i found this one: http://www.instantfundas.com/2007/10/8- … tform.html. I'll try them to see which are better.
Widgets are pretty cool, and they would be a strong reason for me to move from LXDE to WindowMaker or Afterstep, as they can make these WMs look very nice.
Well, I'm moving this topic to SOLVED. From now on, if I need more help I can find by myself.
So, thanks for the suggestions guys.

[SOLVED] Missing Kernel Headers for Catalyst

Hello Everyone,
I am a new Arch guy! I am from the ubuntu world. Love the new arch install, I have installed my own DE.
I use a Radeon HD 68xx so I need the catalyst drivers.
I have tried installing them via: sudo pacman -S catalyst-dkms catalyst-utils (per the wiki)
It gets to the end and gives me this message:
DKMS: add completed.
Error! echo
Your kernel headers for kernel 3.6.2-1-ARCH cannot be found at
/usr/lib/modules/3.6.2-1-ARCH/build or /usr/lib/modules/3.6.2-1-ARCH/source.
error: command failed to execute correctly
Can anybody assist on how I get the kernel headers? As far as I understood, they should be included in Arch.
