To solve some issues with external monitor, I was suggested by
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26833
to install latest kernel. So I did, here are the steps:
1) download *386, *all packages from
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/
linux-headers-2.6.36-020636rc2_2.6.36-020636rc2.201008230905_all.deb
linux-headers-2.6.36-020636rc2-generic_2.6.36-020636rc2.201008230905_i386.deb
linux-image-2.6.36-020636rc2-generic_2.6.36-020636rc2.201008230905_i386.deb
2) install
$ sudo dpkg -i *.deb
=> done, not the new kernel appears in the grub menu !
3) note to main: to de-install:
If you would like to uninstall a mainline kernel anyway, first use:
* dpkg -l | grep "linux\-[a-z]*\-"
to find the exact name of the kernel packages you want to uninstall, and then do:
* sudo apt-get remove KERNEL_PACKAGES_TO_REMOVE
Remember that several packages belong to one kernel version: common headers, architecture specific headers and the architecture specific image.

Hi! Thank you for all these drivers. I'm new to unix/linux and I'm sorry for newbie question. But is it possible to use somehow all these drivers for making U810 working with FreeBSD 8.1 ?
ReplyDeleteI have just installed it to usb stick and of course no any device is working, like wifi/touchscreen/etc...
Thank you in advance for the answer!
