Hi,
I have to compile Kernel Firmware from http://cgit.freedesktop.org/nouveau/linux-2.6/ for my OBS project (home:jobermayr) which includes latest nouveau drivers for openSUSE users.
I do not know how I can do this. With "my" script (from Ruediger Oertel) I do not receive the proper files... Nouveau's firmware files will/have to change from binary to ihex format, too. (see http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/nouveau/2009-December/004261.html)
The second problem is that drm-all packages for openSUSE 11.2 tell me the following at installation: # WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.31.5-0.1-pae/updates/drm/i915/i915.ko needs unknown symbol acpi_lid_notifier_register # WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.31.5-0.1-pae/updates/drm/i915/i915.ko needs unknown symbol acpi_lid_notifier_unregister # WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.31.5-0.1-pae/updates/drm/i915/i915.ko needs unknown symbol acpi_lid_open # WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.31.5-0.1-pae/updates/drm/i915/i915.ko needs unknown symbol acpi_lid_notifier_register # WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.31.5-0.1-pae/updates/drm/i915/i915.ko needs unknown symbol acpi_lid_notifier_unregister # WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.31.5-0.1-pae/updates/drm/i915/i915.ko needs unknown symbol acpi_lid_open
There I do not know how I can back-compile ACPI things (2.6.32->2.6.31) for proper i915.ko work.
Good luck with that, it's not trivial at this time :(
The above are easy, from my experience with i915 KMS backport to 2.6.27. Simply define dummy static inline functions for them. They are rather cosmetic part, so no big missing.
