Using RTD's tutorial I was able to build 2.6.29.5-rt21 for my 9.04 system. (AMD 64 bit).
I had one problem and it's doozy. It died in the very last step of the build because I had the nvidia drivers (non free). The kernel would boot and run (but a few things didn't work). It took a lot of hacking around to get rid of *all* of the nvidia artifacts so that syslog/messages/X.log didn't have errors. My advice is that if you have propriety drivers and you want to build a custom kernel, that you remove all the proprietary drivers before building the kernel. Then you can figure out how to get the proprietary drivers re-installed. Actually, my first thought would be to not build a custom kernel if you have proprietary drivers but if you do, you better know your dpkg and looking at the log files in recovery mode. -- linux-rt restricted to one CPU https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/290498 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
