Christopher, I Appreciate the help and apologize for being so dense. I think I get it, but am still a bit lost with the mainline kernel. From the kernel mapping, I see the 2 kernel versions you are referring to. I have git cloned the kernel. When I try to tell it that I want 3.8.13.2, though, that version is not 'there'. The only selections I have are what I listed above. I got the kernel via git $ git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git $ cd linux/ $ cp /boot/config-`uname -r` .config $ yes '' | make oldconfig $ make clean $ git checkout v3.8.13.2 error: pathspec 'v3.8.13.2' did not match any file(s) known to git. When I start it and 'tab' to see the options, I get this $ git checkout v3.8 v3.8 v3.8-rc2 v3.8-rc4 v3.8-rc6 v3.8-rc1 v3.8-rc3 v3.8-rc5 v3.8-rc7
so I went a bit further just to see what happened $ git bisect start git bisect bad v3.9 git bisect good v3.8 $ make -j `getconf _NPROCESSORS_ONLN` deb-pkg LOCALVERSION=-custom This also makes a 625Mb kernel image. I need to free up more space. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1324935 Title: [Dell Inspiron 1525] WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 1154 at /build/buildd/linux-3.13.0/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_display.c:9226 intel_modeset_check_state+0x62d/0x780 [i915]() To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1324935/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
