[opensuse] How-to Kernel Upgrade
Greetings I want to upgrade my 2.6.27.48-0.2-default kernel (openSuse 11.1) to the last stable release (2.6.35.4) I followed the instructions from [1] but it didn't upgrade my openSuse 11.1, it installed the 11.3 version Is there a kernel repository and then add it to zypper and do the upgrade? Or this [2] is the best way? [1] http://en.opensuse.org//SDB:System_upgrade [2] http://www.howtoforge.com/kernel_compilation_suse What is the best way to do that?

if i understand you correctly, you already upgraded your system to openSUSE 11.3. do you have any problems with the standard kernel, or do you just want to try the 'latest & greatest' kernel available? judging from your question, you don't seem to be too familiar with openSUSE, but according to your email signature, you're studying something like "system engineering" or whatever, and are a long time linux user. it might be useful to read some more about kernel installation / compilation under openSUSE by searching the forums for this topic (http://forums.opensuse.org) or the mailing list archives (http://lists.opensuse.org/). you find the kernel repo here: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Kernel:/ and here's information about the "kernel of the day," a daily snapshot of the kernel git repository: http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Kernel_of_the_day needless to say, any of these things may break your system if not done properly. (tip: to install a new kernel via yast or zypper but leave the previous kernel intact, you'll have to edit /etc/zypp/zypp.conf, un-commenting the line that reads "multiversion = provides:multiversion(kernel)"). -- phani. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Greetings Yes, I followed this guide [1] to do a system upgrade to openSuse 11.3 to: check the hardware performance (AMD Turion x2 1.9 GHz, 4 GB RAM) and avoid overheating (hp design issue) after upgrade, the processor's cooling fan was quieter but I miss KDE 3.5 so I'll upgrade the openSuse 11.1 default kernel to the last stable release @phani take it as a suggestion try to avoid "judging" from people questions.. I have been using Gnu/Linux from long time and compiled the kernel under CentOS but now I want to do that in the openSuse way [1] http://en.opensuse.org//SDB:System_upgrade -- Julian Osorio Amaya Universidad Libre.

that's exactly what i "judged," and wrote in my reply: you're unfamiliar with openSUSE, but a long time linux user, and that seems to be correct. why should i avoid such "judgement" ? -- phani. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
