kernel problems

Hi All,

I'm having problems with the latest Kernel every time i try it it crash on me with no log entries warnings etc my x session just stops.

So i've down graded for a while and was just wanting to ask 2 questions

1. Is there a fix?

2. can i pull down the source for the my currently installed kernel i think its 23.x..x so i can patch it with fbspash?

Thanks
Matthew

P.S just wanted to say made the the move from Gentoo to Arch about 3 months ago and loving it smile


Side line but are there any patches out there to improve Gnome in a similar way to the kdemod project?
I've tried some of the ubuntu patches like the shutdown screen patch but it didn't work.

Cheers

Re: kernel problems

Hi genisis300,

You can use ABS to compile your kernel:  http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/ABS … ild_System and http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ker … n_with_ABS.

As for gnome, I know of nothing similar to kdemod.  I rather envy kde users.  But I know that I don't have the time or enthusiasm for such a project...

Re: kernel problems

Hi Tigrmesh.

Thanks for your response. I've used ABS before however because i'm using an older kernel if i use it now it pulls down the new source. I'm after the old source files because of a problem with the new kernel that stops me from using X

Cheers
Matthew

Re: kernel problems

Ah.  You might want CVS then:  http://cvs.archlinux.org/cgi-bin/viewcv … 6/PKGBUILD.
