kmod packaging guideline
by Farkas Levente 26 Dec '08

26 Dec '08

hi, it'd be nice to write some kind of docs about how to write kmod packages for centos. as i wrote in one of my earlier post there are two problems currently with the weak-updates kmods: kmodtool shouldn't have to add to all packages rather use the /usr/lib/rpm/redhat/kmodtool from redhat-rpm-config ie: ---------------------------------------------- @@ -1,7 +1,6 @@ -Source10: kmodtool Source11: find-requires Source12: find-requires.ksyms -%define kmodtool bash %{SOURCE10} +%define kmodtool bash /usr/lib/rpm/redhat/kmodtool ---------------------------------------------- and add: BuildRequires: redhat-rpm-config the other problem is the these new kmod gives warning during install. ie if someone create a kickstart file which contains these kmods then anaconda warning about it: "Bad kmod package 'kmod-....' does not require a kernel" the reason for this is /usr/lib/anaconda/fedorakmod.py which has a check in resolveVersions. so hack the current find-requires.ksym to also requires at least kernel-%{arch} would be useful. at the same time write a newer short howto write kmods for centos-5. just my 2c. yours. -- Levente "Si vis pacem para bellum!"

I received the following PM (below) on the CentOS forums the other day.

Rebuild xorg
by Alain PORTAL 23 Dec '08

23 Dec '08

Hi, I just installed and fully updated Centos 5.2 on my laptop. Unfortunately, this one need at least the version 6.8.0 of the xorg-x11-drv-ati (available in Fedora 9), and this driver need xorg-x11-server-Xorg >= 1.4.99.1 :-( So, I need to rebuild many things if I want to use centos on my laptop, and I want to use it! As this is the first time I use Centos, could you tell me which tools I need and how I have to do to rebuild packages that I'll probably take on Fedora 9 mirrors? Regards, Alain -- Les pages de manuel Linux en français http://manpagesfr.free.fr/

new drivers for 5.3
by Michael Simpson 23 Dec '08

23 Dec '08

Hi there I note that the new kernels for 5.3 will have the bcm43xx work from 2.6.25 backported into them. Does this mean that the driver name will change to b43 (as i thought that bcm43xx was deprecated)? If not then will we need to change the firmware by cutting from 4.150.10.5 and will bcm43xx-fwcutter work for this? thanks mike

Defining what CentOS is
by Dag Wieers 23 Dec '08

23 Dec '08

Hi, We discussed this on #centos after yet another "centos" user had problem using yum. What is missing is a page targetted at integrators/distributors with a list of requirements for using the "CentOS" product name or even saying it is derived, based or build on CentOS. We might be able to kill more than one bird with a single stone, so I am looking for more things we want to prevent distributors/integrators doing without making it impossible for them to use CentOS altogether. My first concern was the support problem, what do we (at minimum) expect to have when users say they have a CentOS. A working yum using the CentOS official repositories, a minimal set of official packages (which ?). Without complying to the list of requirements, they may not refer to CentOS (and people will not have the wrong expectations for support). http://wiki.centos.org/About/CentOS-product-definition Feedback please ? -- -- dag wieers, dag(a)wieers.com, http://dag.wieers.com/ -- [Any errors in spelling, tact or fact are transmission errors]
