Hi Rigels,
(Sorry for the top posting - using MS Outlook WebApp)
You can use "/boot/config*" (from your meego platfrom) as ".config"
for compiling your new kernel.
Also try "make kernelrelease" command to check the release number and
make sure that it matches with the destination kernel.
also using a 2.6.35.3-10.3 to get a module for 2.6.35-14.2 is not going
to work.
what you really need to do is build a MODULE (not a whole kernel!) using
the headers from the shipped kernel.
trying to build a whole kernel just to get one module, that then goes
into a DIFFERENT kernel.. *bad idea*
Hope this helps!
Cheers,
Ameya.

*Subject:* [Meego-kernel] radio-timb driver magic version conflict
after applying a patch and kernel compile
Because I had a problem with the radio-timb driver included in
the 2.6.35.3-14.2-ivi MeeGo release, I had to apply a driver patch,
kindly reported by the driver developer at the following link
http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg00809.html .
Then I compiled the kernel ( downloaded from
http://repo.meego.com/MeeGo/releases/1.1/core/repos/source/kernel-2.6.35.3-10.3.src.rpm
)
under another linux distro on an intel x86 cpu.
When the compilation process ended, I copied the radio-timb.ko file in
a pen drive,
then I renamed the old driver and copied the new one in the Meego
platform.
When I try to
# insmod radio-timb.ko
or
#insmod radio-timb
i get the following error : -1 invalid format
executing
#dmesg
gives the following error
radio_timb: version magic '2.6.35 SMP mod_unload modversions 686 '
should be '2.6.35.3-14.2-ivi SMP preempt mod_unload PENTIUMM '
So the version of the driver is different and that's the problem I guess.
What should i do in order to make the patch driver run on Meego?
How can I modify the Makefile in kernel folder in order to fix this
problem ?
Any help is appreciated.
