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

supposedly the 2.6.8.1-3 kernel in the arch repositories should allow burning with k3b.

if not then nagivgate into the cvs repository (web interface version) and then navigate into the kernel26 directory and there you can download whatever files you need to build the 2.6.7 kernel package. Make sure you have all the supporting files needed.

Tx,

but it seems there isn't yet an scsci-version of version 3 of kernel 2.6.8.1. For now I can burn cdr's which is what I needed, but I suppose I have to wait (or if needed compile my own kernel like you said) if I want to burn audio-cd's.

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)
