Solved - solution based on many pages like: http://cs-people.bu.edu/doucette/xia/guides/debian-patch.txt https://wiki.debian.org/UsingQuilt (and many more I forgot ... sorry)
So, I will try to write some quick steps so you can build your own fglrx-installer-updates package until properly released: 1. Get needed tools installed: sudo apt-get install quilt sudo apt-get install devscripts 2. Get the sources and build dependencies: apt-get source fglrx-updates-core apt-get build-dep fglrx-updates-core 3. Start patching: Change into src dir (or whatever it is named): cd fglrx-installer-updates-15.200 Push all existing patches: quilt push -a Create a new patch (or import MatthewHawn (steamraven) 's one - see quilt reference above). So you took the edit way - here it is: quilt new kcl_acpi.diff Add a new file to modify: quilt add lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod/kcl_acpi.c Edit the file and apply MatthewHawn (steamraven) 's patch (or use the diff - any way you're confortable with): nano lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod/kcl_acpi.c Refresh quilt: quilt refresh Unapply all patches: quilt pop -a Give it a version and txt: dch -i Now you need to edit some more (I coulden't package it without editing - and quilt could not help me anymore): nano debian/rules line 435: - done \ + done; \ line 440: - execstack -q $$i && execstack -c $$i || true; done; \ + execstack -q $$i && execstack -c $$i || true; \ line 445: - execstack -q $$i && execstack -c $$i; done; \ + execstack -q $$i && execstack -c $$i; \ line 450: - execstack -q $$i && execstack -c $$i; done; \ + execstack -q $$i && execstack -c $$i; \ Save it and run: debuild -us -uc 4. Install: cd .. dpkg -i fglrx-updates-core fglrx-updates fglrx-amdcccle-updates Sorry for the brevity - I write on the run atm. and kinda retracing from memory - I hope I didn't skip / barf something :) I am running the modified version and I can confirm that it works for me :) Thank you MatthewHawn (steamraven) for providing the proper patch - I missed graphical interface :D Regards -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to fglrx-installer in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1479913 Title: fglrx-core 2:15.200-0ubuntu4.1: fglrx-core kernel module failed to build [FATAL: modpost: GPL-incompatible module fglrx.ko uses GPL-only symbol 'pci_ignore_hotplug'] To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fglrx-installer/+bug/1479913/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
