As previously detailed ad nauseum, none of the Qubes dom0 4.4 or 4.9 version Kernels will boot on my laptop (HP Elitebook 2540p). This means I'm stuck on the ancient 3.18.17-8.
I'm comfortable(ish - have built a Xenial template) using Qubes builder and I notice Reg Tiangha has a repo with updated 3.18 kernel at https://github.com/rtiangha/qubes-linux-kernel/ I notice Reg also submits patches which are merged into the official qubes-linux-kernel repo after review by Marek. 1. Is there any chance of getting the updated 3.18 kernel merged into the official repos so anyone (read me) with truculent hardware can remain on this, even if it means building the package ourselves? (this is actually what I was envisaging maybe happening when previously inquiring whether it was possible to buy a support case from ITL) 2. If not (not worth the effort of Marek to review?) given the existence of [https://github.com/rtiangha/qubes-linux-kernel](https://github.com/rtiangha/qubes-linux-kernel/) what are the suggestions to an 'ordinary' end user who wants to build a 3.18 kernel from there? Specifically, I'd be extending my trust from the Qubes developers to Reg, who apart from clearly being active in the Qubes community, I know nothing about. Are there sensible actions that can / should be taken with git to verify the kernel code? No insult to Reg here intended whatsoever :) Thanks -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
