Re: [Vserver] future vserver on ubuntu
Hi, It looks like Ubuntu is no longer going to include kernel-patch-vserver in the distribution. It's not in feisty. The patch included in edgy does not apply to the stock linux sources (2.6.17) and edgy does not include 2.6.12/2.6.13/2.6.15 which the patch requires. And, there are no images at ubuntu.uni-klu.ac.at. I have applied the original patch for 2.6.17.13 from http://ftp.linux-vserver.org/pub/kernel/vs2.0/patch-2.6.17.13-vs2.0.2.1.diff.bz2 to linux-source-2.6.17 (version 2.6.17-10.33) from edgy and fixed the rejects. I can supply the resulting patch or even kernel-image debs if anyone is interested. Cheers, Christoph ___ Vserver mailing list Vserver@list.linux-vserver.org http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver

Debian have removed kernel-patch-vserver from testing/unstable but have started shipping a package with it pre-built on the current Debian kernel version, see linux-image-2.6-vserver-$ARCH . As I understand it Ubuntu releases start from a partial snapshots of unstable, so the same is probably true.

As I understand it Ubuntu releases start from a partial snapshots of unstable, so the same is probably true. wouldn't bet on it. ubuntu maintains their kernels separate from debian. don't know if they'll follow debian's lead in this area or not, but if they do it won't be because they are simply reusing debian's packages from unstable. to answer the original poster: if you want an edgy kernel patched with vserver, then download the kernel source package from http://ubuntu.uni-klu.ac.at/ubuntu.uniklu/dists/dapper/uniklu-vserver/source/*2.6.17* and build it yourself. yes, the binary package appears to target dapper (at least it's in the dapper repository; haven't compared the dependency versions to see if they are the same as in dapper), but the source package can probably be built on edgy no problem (as i simply rebuild the dapper kernel on debian sarge). my guess is that Gerald Hochegger is building/backporting the edgy kernel for dapper because they've probably settled on dapper but need the newer kernel version (2.6.17 vs 2.6.15) to support newer hardware. (i'm interested in how ubuntu handles supporting people/companies/organizations running dapper long-term but needing to support newer machines not supported in dapper's 2.6.15. is dapper's long term support for hardware going to be stuck in the year 2006?) hth. corey -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ Vserver mailing list Vserver@list.linux-vserver.org http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver
