Re: Adding patch to kernel

If you look at this thread there is a nice script that you could use to rename your kernel and build it with all the arch patches. You would need to modify your PKGBUILD to include the patch that you want to add.

Yes but for example if i want to delete asus-blabla patch for asus acpi how can i do it? If i delete the asus-acpi patch then i have to modify something in kernel configc with gconf o menuconf??

Re: Adding patch to kernel

Bola, check out the arch wiki on building the kernel with ABS. If you use abs and edit the PKGBUILD for the kernel removing any patches that you do not want applied there is nothing else to be done except building the kernel using makepkg.

Re: Adding patch to kernel

Edit: k i'm compiling my kernel but i see some warning like this:

arch/i386/kernel/apm.c: In function 'suspend':
arch/i386/kernel/apm.c:1192: warning: 'pm_send_all' is deprecated (declared at include/linux/pm_legacy.h:20)
arch/i386/kernel/apm.c:1227: warning: 'pm_send_all' is deprecated (declared at include/linux/pm_legacy.h:20)
arch/i386/kernel/apm.c: In function 'check_events':
arch/i386/kernel/apm.c:1340: warning: 'pm_send_all' is deprecated (declared at include/linux/pm_legacy.h:20)

it's a problem?
