Compiling custom kernel for Samsung N140 fails (system freezes)

Hello,

first of all, I'm new here and a archlinux newbie. I installed Arch successfully and my xserver runs well with LXDE. I found an wiki articel (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Samsung_N140) about my netbook and tried to compile the kernel:

$ wget https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/li/linux-n130/linux-n130.tar.gz
unpack etc...
$ makepkg -s

I tried it about five times and always occured an error (sometimes it looks like a endless loop, sometimes system freezes with black screen).

Last time I tried the compiling ran about an hour and then the system shows and freezes:

[ 3776.749648]  [<c04ae46f>] error_code+0x67/0x6c
[ 3776.749648]  ---[end trace 449aad8cb0f038eb]---

I don't know what to do. Please help me.

Greetings from Germany

Have a look at https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=140635 . What kernel are you using at the moment? linux 3.3.4-1?

Yes I use 3.3.4-1 at the moment.

I read that Reverting to 3.3.3-1 solves the problem... how can I do that?

Or you could wait a few hours. A new kernel package with a fix for the 3.3.4 issue should be in the repos later on tonight.

See this BR for the details.
