Sure! I did the following: Installed all needed packages, unpacked the source package and made a symlink /usr/src/linux to /usr/src/linux-source-3.2 Patched: patch -p1 < /mypath/blah/0001ath5kxxxxxxxxxx.patch So I did with all patches. Then copied /boot/config-3.2.0-4-amd64 to /usr/src/linux/.config (so I got also the version, worked before in the past this way). After that make menuconfig to check. Building then: make modules, because I just wanted to build only the ath5k module. At last I copied the newly build module ath5k.ko and replaced it with the new built one. depmod -a finished all. > > You've made this same argument before.

No, I am not sick and I will try it in the next time. But my time is limited, as I cannot run compilatiuon at work and in the evening the time is often too short, to run a compilation. > > Hoping that clarifies, > Jonathan Best regards Hans -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kernel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
