Linux Headers for previous kernels

cristianpark · 2011-10-20 15:49:38

Hi guys, I been using Arch for a while and I like it some much, I'm experiencing a trouble with VirtualBox because of linux-headers. I have Kernel 2.6.39 but in the repositories the package linux-headers that installs the headers of Kernel 3.0, There is a way to install de linux-headers for the kernel 2.6.39??

Thanks

build the linux kernel 2.6.39 using the ABS (old kernel26 package) and it will also pack the headers.

You can look here for older packages:

http://schlunix.org/archlinux/

Kernel and header packages are in core, e.g.:

http://schlunix.org/archlinux/core/os/i686/

http://schlunix.org/archlinux/core/os/x86_64/

Thanks for the quick answers guys, I'm searching in the links that dhave post and I can't find the linux-headers for version 2.6.39 of the kernel, all I see is 3.0.x version.

For what ethail proposes, I'm looking for kernel26 on AUR [1] (I only have use ABS like this) and haven't found anything useful, and I don't understand how to build kernel from there and extract headers, can you tell me more about this option please?

Thanks for the help again

The packages are called kernel26-headers e.g. http://schlunix.org/archlinux/core/os/i … pkg.tar.xz
