Back to 12.1 kernel?


Or wait?

[keellambert]

FWIW I tried to go back to kernel-desktop-3.3.6-1.1.x86_64 but could not find one at Index of /

looking round, linux-3.3.7.tar.bz2 was found at PCHome.de Startseite - News, Download, Software, Spiele

this was compiled (took a long time, about an hour?) and 3.3.7-3-desktop x86_64 (64 bit) installed

after which the amd-driver-installer-12-4-x86.x86_64.run ran ok

all is now back as it was before (hopefully), googleearth, tvtime and mtt ok

You can use my SAKC bash script to load any kernel version you find at The Linux Kernel Archives, just don't use a kernel version older than the distribution was released with.

S.A.K.C. - SUSE Automated Kernel Compiler - Version 2.71 - Blogs - openSUSE Forums

You can get ANY kernel version released since the year 2005 with this bash script if its not at kernel.org:

S.G.T.B. - SuSE Git Kernel Tarball Creator - Version 1.80 - Blogs - openSUSE Forums

Use the following pre-defined kernel source git domain in SGTB called: Linux-Stable.git @ Kernel.org

Just let me know if you have any questions.

Thank You,

I have same issue and was googling to find some info. Gentoo Forums :: View topic - kernel 3.3.4 -> 3.4 issues i don't know how to work with it, so i dint try. let me know if it works for you.

[ILYA_INDIGO]

hrudaireddy, thank you for your answer.
It was not helpful for me, but I realized that the problem is larger than I expected.

By the way, NVIDIA 302 on kernel 3.4 is not building too!
I had to roll back on both computers to kernel 3.1.10 from Update
It is interesting precisely because of this problem is skipped 4 alpha, is likely, and beta 12.2?

[keellambert]

Thanks for the info on the Gentoo patch,
it was installed manually but got nowhere,
so its kernel 3.3 and catalyst 12.4 for now.

ps. also thanks for the kernel.org hint,
I'm now using kernel 3.3.7 from 'http://www.kernel.org/'
How can this kernel be deleted when the time comes?

[keellambert]

Had another play with the patch and the catalyst driver has now installed ok

The following worked

all has to be done with root privilages, extreme caution needed.

Updated today to kernel 3.4.0-26-desktop x86_64 (64 bit)

Catalyst12.4 only installed with the changes described above

The only difference noted during the install was that the

WARNING: "old_rsp" [/lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod/2.6.x/fglrx.ko] undefined!

did not occur!
