[opensuse-kernel] linux-next packages for openSUSE
Hi, If you are using opensuse and want to contribute to kernel development by testing the linux-next tree, reporting bugs and verifying fixes, you now have a convenient way: # zypper addrepo --refresh \ http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Kernel:/linux-next/standard \ linux-next # zypper install --from linux-next kernel-vanilla and then just do 'zypper install kernel-vanilla' (*) every day. The packages are updated daily by a script and fixed by me as necessary, so they might be lagging behind at times. The config is previous config + allmodconfig for new options, so some unwanted debug options can creep in occasionally. The build logs are here: https://build.opensuse.org/project/monitor?project=Kernel%3Alinux-next the configs are here: http://gitorious.org/opensuse/kernel-source/trees/linux-next/config Please report installation and config issues to opensuse-kernel@opensuse.org, everything else should go to the upstream mailing lists as usual. Happy testing. Oh, and there are also builds of latest Linus' tree and latest stable: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Kernel:/vanilla/standard/ http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Kernel:/stable/openSUSE_Factory/ Michal (*) The name kernel-vanilla might be a bit confusing; in the suse build scripts it means "upstream kernel without suse patches", not necessarily Linus' kernel. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+help@opensuse.org
