Sometimes i need to compile just one kernel module for current kernel without compiling full kernel tree. This is how i get it done:
1) get attached patch 2) install and extract kernel source sudo apt-get install linux-source tar xjf /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.32.tar.bz2 3) patching and compilation (only drivers/usb/serial subdirectory) mkdir temp cd ./linux-source-2.6.32 patch -p1 < ../usb-wwan-2.6.32.diff cp /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build/.config ../temp cp /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build/Module.symvers ../temp cp /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build/Makefile . make O=../temp outputmakefile make O=../temp archprepare make O=../temp prepare make O=../temp modules SUBDIRS=scripts make O=../temp modules SUBDIRS=drivers/usb/serial/ 4) copy resulting modules to kernel modules directory sudo cp ../temp/drivers/usb/serial/usb_wwan.ko /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/usb/serial/ sudo cp ../temp/drivers/usb/serial/qcserial.ko /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/usb/serial/ sudo cp ../temp/drivers/usb/serial/option.ko /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/usb/serial/ sudo /sbin/depmod -a -- HP un2400 mobile broadband module not working after upgrade to lucid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/554099 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
