I want to use the patched kernel version that is available in 5.0.2, since it works fine with my M-Audio Fast Track Ultra when I use the LiveCD. My problem is that I'm running Ubuntu with KXStudio on top, and I would like to continue running that. The problem is that I'm on a 64 bit system, so I can't just use the current kernel packages. :-/
Is the patched kernel source available somewhere, so I can roll my own 64 bit version? I've tried looking around, but I can't seem to find it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers!

I never quite decided where to put it, and as a result it never got uploaded. I'll try to upload it tonight.
Of course you could just use the vanilla 3.1 source from kernel.org, as the Fast Track Pro patch made it into mainline as of 3.1. The only other issue there would be that vanilla 3.1 would be missing the aufs patches, so remastersys would not work with that.
I'll post back with a link when the AVLinux kernel source is uploaded.

Thank you so much! Before posting here I tried using a 3.1.4 kernel found at http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.1.4-oneiric/, but that severly broke more or less everything related to USB. So that was a total "no go"... I'll build this and see how it goes. And thanks again! :-) |

3.1.3 and 3.0.11 contained a neat little booboo that broke pretty much everything USB. That should have been fixed in 3.1.4...and every other 3.1 revision should be fine. But you're welcome to use my patched kernel source.

The patched version works nicely. And if I want to actually try to get something audio related done, I think I'd better not "fix" my laptop with a later kernel just yet... :-)

I just installed 2.6.39 avlinux kernel because 3.0 kernel was unusable for me. Since I need to compile a driver for my wifi card, is there a place where i can get the source of that kernel?
Can i use the stock 2.6.39 from kernel.org instead?

Just curious: Why was the 3.0 kernel unusable? Usually the kernel headers are all you need to compile out-of-tree modules such as wifi drivers. You may need to fix the symlink so your module can find the headers though. To do that, run (as root) ln -s /usr/src/linux-headers-$(uname -r) /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build The kernel source we used for the 2.6.39 AVLinux kernels is cobbled together from three pieces: 1. Linux kernel source from kernel.org. 2. aufs source (this is what enables live boot and remastersys backup to work.) 3. Fast Track Pro patch. So if you don't have a Fast Track Pro and don't care about being able to use Remastersys Backup, you can just use the source from kernel.org. And finally, I will try to get my .39 sources tarballed and uploaded in the near future. |

thx a lot for the help, fixing the symlink worked. i couldn't get my usb card to work without xruns on 3.0. The setting i have now on 2.6.39 is rock solid now!

Glad it's working for you! I am curious and a little concerned that 3.0 behaves differently with your usb soundcard than does 2.6.39. If it's not too much trouble, I'd be interested in knowing which specific build of 3.0 you had troubles with, and also what specific brand and model soundcard you are using. Thanks!

ups I have a similar problem with endless xruns but with my m-audio fast track ultra. my fast track pro works fine. but I have not tried yet kernel < 3.0. I'll test it. but it would be annoying to use an "old" kernel. is this a fault in the new ehci stack of kernels 3.0 ff ?? in ubuntu forum user nullakilla describes a similar problem http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1867974. gg |

where can I find the source for 2.6.39.3-avl, or the right fast-track patch for vanilla 2.6.39 ?
I want to compile the kernel for av linux 5.0.3 tube.

thank you for your support. The solution was now Vanilla 3.6.7.
quite stable's not true. but the occasional errors are harmless.
my dream would now have a way to use the internal Gagets of Ultra to (effects and mixer).
just a dream ;-)

ok, I did not want to believe. It really does everything ( Effect and Routing ). Perfect and easy, in the mixer. Thanks Felix, Mark and Takashi
