-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Haha, you almost got it.
The short version: apt-get -t unstable source fglrx-driver But you need the deb-src line in your sources.list. See my previous message. Also please forget about dch for now, we need to do something else first. My mistake! We are going to do this in parallel, ok? First I do a step, then I write a message and you do it. That way you'll learn the process, and we'll make sure there are no mistakes in my instructions. The long version: - ----------------- a) First we tell apt about sid: $ sudo vim /etc/apt/sources.list ... deb http://ftp.it.debian.org/debian/ sid main contrib non-free deb-src http://ftp.it.debian.org/debian/ sid main contrib non-free ... [ESC]:wq (This tells vim to save and exit) b) Next we run apt-get update: $ sudo apt-get update c) Now we forbid normal installation from sid, using a mechanism called apt-pinning: $ sudo vim /etc/apt/preferences.d/90-sid.pref Explanation: Forbid sid. Package: * Pin: release n=sid Pin-Priority: -1 [ESC]:wq ( = save and exit ) d) Now we install the sources from sid. $ cd && \ mkdir fglrx-driver-debian-package && \ cd fglrx-driver-debian-package $ pwd /home/lina/fglrx-driver-debian-package $ apt-get -t unstable source fglrx-driver [... long wait ...] dpkg-source: info: extracting fglrx-driver in fglrx-driver-11-4 dpkg-source: info: unpacking fglrx-driver_11-4.orig.tar.bz2 dpkg-source: info: unpacking fglrx-driver_11-4-2.debian.tar.gz dpkg-source: info: applying 01-CONFIG_X86_XEN.diff dpkg-source: info: applying 02-dkms-arch_compat.diff dpkg-source: info: applying 03-authatieventsd.sh.diff dpkg-source: info: applying 05-fix-global-kernel-lock.diff dpkg-source: info: applying 06-no-smp-lock.diff dpkg-source: info: applying 07-2.6.39-support.diff $ ls fglrx-driver-11-4 fglrx-driver_11-4-2.dsc fglrx-driver_11-4-2.debian.tar.gz fglrx-driver_11-4.orig.tar.bz2 $ ls fglrx-driver-11-4/debian/ acpi fglrx-driver.postinst amdcccle.1 fglrx-driver.postrm amdcccle.desktop fglrx-driver.preinst amdcccle.xpm fglrx-driver.templates changelog fglrx-glx-ia32.install compat fglrx-glx-ia32.lintian-overrides configuration fglrx-glx-ia32.postinst control fglrx-glx-ia32.postrm copyright fglrx-glx-ia32.preinst dkms fglrx-glx.install fglrx-atieventsd.default fglrx-glx.lintian-overrides fglrx-atieventsd.docs fglrx-glx.postinst fglrx-atieventsd.init fglrx-glx.postrm fglrx-atieventsd.install fglrx-glx.preinst fglrx-atieventsd.lintian-overrides fglrx-modules-dkms.install fglrx-atieventsd.manpages fglrx-modules-dkms.lintian-overrides fglrx-atieventsd.preinst fglrx-modules-dkms.postinst fglrx-atieventsd.README.selinux fglrx-modules-dkms.prerm fglrx-control.install man fglrx-control.lintian-overrides NEWS fglrx-control.manpages patches fglrx-control.menu po fglrx-driver.config README.Debian fglrx-driver.default README.hacking fglrx-driver.doc-base reportbug fglrx-driver.docs rules fglrx-driver.install shlibs.local fglrx-driver.links source fglrx-driver.lintian-overrides source.lintian-overrides fglrx-driver.manpages watch - ----------------- That's it!!!
