Kernel is 3.0.36-avl-9 (rt kernel) > and from alsa mixer I see the version is 1.0.24 You need some packages to compile a kernel, from an outdated script I'm still using: apt-get update apt-get install fakeroot build-essential crash kexec-tools makedumpfile kernel-package kernel-wedge apt-get install libncurses5 libncurses5-dev libelf-dev asciidoc binutils-dev Not all are needed, but to install all of them doesn't harm. Get the kernel and patches from wget http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/[snip] tar -jxf linux-foo.tar.bz2 >From time to time you need to cd ;). Perhaps you need to patch bzip2 -dc ../patch-foo.patch.bz2 | patch -p1 Get your current configuration by cp /boot/config-$(uname -r) .config This might be useful too # e.g. set to CONFIG_MK8=y (Opteron/Athlon64/Hammer/K8), command out for default echo "CONFIG_MK8=y" >> .config # 32-bit only # HIGHMEM from 4G to 64G # echo "CONFIG_HIGHMEM4G is not set" >> .config # echo "CONFIG_HIGHMEM64G=y" >> .config but it's not needed. Then I run make oldconfig you need to run make menuconfig or similar to do the settings. make-kpkg clean make-kpkg --rootcmd fakeroot --initrd kernel-image kernel-headers # Installing new packages make-kpkg clean dpkg -i ../linux-image-foo-10.00.Custom_*.deb dpkg -i ../linux-headers-foo-10.00.Custom_*.deb ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Free Next-Gen Firewall Hardware Offer Buy your Sophos next-gen firewall before the end March 2013 and get the hardware for free!
