This change was made around 2.6.23 (if I remember correctly). I should
update the wiki.

hi martin

first let me thank you (and all the others involved of course, too)  for 
your ongoing support and effort for bringing and maintaining debian for 
the NSLU2!

I fetched the newest debian kernel image source in unstable and followed 
the instructions. there are some small changes (underscores vs. hyphens) 
that IMO should be changed in the wiki page:


this does not work:
$ fakeroot make -f debian/rules.gen setup-arm-none-ixp4xx

this works:
$ fakeroot make -f debian/rules.gen setup_arm_none_ixp4xx

the generated directory also is not called 
'debian/build/build-arm-none-ixp4xx/' but 
'ebian/build/build_arm_none_ixp4xx/', furthermore compiling the kernel 
then goes like this:


$ fakeroot make -f debian/rules.gen binary-arch_arm_none_ixp4xx

and not:
$ fakeroot make -f debian/rules.gen binary-arch-arm-none-ixp4xx

I don't know whether these changes only apply to kernels  2.6.18 
(example on the wiki page).


thanks  regards
nicola

2008-02-10 Thread Martin Michlmayr
* Nicola Fankhauser [EMAIL PROTECTED] [2008-02-10 13:26]:
 compiled it on the NLSU2 itself (takes ages) and was left with a
 kernel which had no ixp4xx_npe driver, even the kernel config is
 missing the CONFIG_IXP4XX_NPE= entry.

 how do I get the ethernet driver in my self-compiled kernel? thanks
 for any ideas.

I'm not sure how you compiled the kernel but it seems the Debian
patches were not applied.  I suggest you follow the instructions at
http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/Debian/BuildImage

Anyway, I'll enable the module in the Debian kernel.

you are absolutely right, I was under the impression that getting the 
source package for a debian kernel would automatically do that (which it 
does not).



Anyway, I'll enable the module in the Debian kernel.


thanks!
