Kernel 5.17-rc1 is due out soon, and so I tested the latest (Jan 16th) Github version, to see if there were any surprises.. The latest NVIDIA driver – 510.39.01 – compiled and loaded/ran OK: …………. ld -r -o /home/rgadsdon/NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-510.39.01/kernel/nvidia-modeset/nv-modeset-interface.o /home/rgadsdon/NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-510.39.01/kernel/nvidia-modeset/nvidia-modeset-linux.o /home/rgadsdon/NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-510.39.01/kernel/nvidia-modeset/nv-kthread-q.o MODPOST /home/rgadsdon/NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-510.39.01/kernel/Module.symvers CC [M] /home/rgadsdon/NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-510.39.01/kernel/nvidia-drm.mod.o LD [M] /home/rgadsdon/NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-510.39.01/kernel/nvidia-drm.ko CC [M] /home/rgadsdon/NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-510.39.01/kernel/nvidia-modeset.mod.o LD [M] /home/rgadsdon/NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-510.39.01/kernel/nvidia-modeset.ko CC [M] … Continue reading →

Raspberry Pi – Kernel to 3.6.9..

Adventures With Linux ™ Posted on December 7, 2012 by RGDecember 7, 2012

The 3.6.y branch of the kernel on GitHub has now been updated to 3.6.9, in step with the ‘mainline’ kernel.. To get the source, you may need to explicitly reference the rpi-3.6.y.tar.gz download, instead of the (default) rpi-3.2.7.tar.gz https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux/archive/rpi-3.6.y.tar.gz Compilation was as described in earlier posts.. Fedora release 17 (Beefy Miracle) Kernel 3.6.9-pi on an armv6l (ttyAMA0) … Continue reading →

APC – Kernel Source – Signs of Life?

Adventures With Linux ™ Posted on December 4, 2012 by RGDecember 4, 2012

After a gap of over three months, there seems to be some activity with the APC kernel and uboot source on GitHub.. https://github.com/apc-io/apc-8750 Changes were made on December 2nd, but would appear to have been in error, for some reason, and the latest ‘commit’ is marked ‘Revert’..     The kernel version seems to have been the same, but … Continue reading →

Pi Kernel – Bump to 3.6?

Adventures With Linux ™ Posted on October 15, 2012 by RGOctober 15, 2012

Just checked the Raspberry Pi GitHub repository, and there is a ‘3.6.y’ kernel there, now.. https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux/tree/rpi-3.6.y Will download and see if it compiles and installs, yet..   It might just be a first attempt to patch to 3.6, though… This is – of course – a welcome development, to keep the Pi kernel up-to-date.. … Continue reading →

3.4 Released..

Adventures With Linux ™ Posted on May 21, 2012 by RGMay 21, 2012

Kernel 3.4.0 just released…   Not on kernel.org yet, so downloaded from github (https://github.com/torvalds/linux). The latest version of the NVIDIA linux drivers (295.53) already supports kernel 3.4x, and the latest ‘weltall‘ patch for VMware (8.0.3) also supports this kernel version, so should be good to go.. Now – to see what’s new/improved/fixed/broken! Update:   compiled/installed, and everything seems to … Continue reading →

Put a Fork in it…

Adventures With Linux ™ Posted on March 12, 2012 by RGMarch 12, 2012

The Linux kernel source for the Pi has been ‘forked’, rather than being released as a patch set.. This is probably a necessary evil, in order to get a working version out in public…   But.. This has the (obvious) downside that we have to rely on regular creation of ‘newer’ forked versions, and the current Pi kernel … Continue reading →
