sources for bubba3 kernel

Post by splitbrain »

Someone suggested to build needed kernel modules myself until a Excito developer answers to my need for an additional Kernel module. Unfortunately it seems the bubba3-kernel sources are not in the default repositories:

Code: Select all

# cat /etc/apt/sources.list |grep -v '^#' |grep deb-src
deb-src http://b3.update.excito.org/ elvin main
deb-src http://b3.update.excito.org/ upstream_squeeze main
deb-src http://ftp.se.debian.org/debian squeeze main
deb-src http://ftp.se.debian.org/debian squeeze contrib
deb-src http://ftp.se.debian.org/debian squeeze non-free
# apt-get source bubba3-modules
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree

E: Unable to find a source package for bubba3-modules
Where can I get the needed sources?

I suggest you send an support question to support@excito.com

The src for the kernels for Bubba and Bubba 2 can be found here http://download.excito.net/kernel/. Excito have unfortunately not been so good to remember to put up an new kernel source there when they have made an update. Sending them an email about it has made them put up the new one in a day or so.

You do know that you can find the current kernel config compressed in the file /proc/config.gz. By unpacking that file and rename in to .config in the root of the kernel src tree should give you the right starting point to compile the kernel. It took me some time to figure this out myself.
