I will try that out for sure on my 32bit build... So when I have the time and it works well, I can provide you a 32bit kernel build with that patched module.
I you do not like to wait, her is a full kernel Compile HowTo, which should answer all questions: http://kernel-handbook.alioth.debian.org/ ubuntu documentation on this issue is here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile In short and easy: 1. You need some tools to compile, which ones is explained in the docs I linked. 2. You need kernel Sources for the kernel you like to build. Stable kernel sources can be downloaded via apt-get. mainline Builds with sources can be found here: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ 3. You need to apply the patches to the kernel you like to recompile. You can do that manually by reading the patch file. It gives a path/name of a file in the kernel package and lines to add to that file (marked with ++) and lines to be deleted (marked with --). Do the changes. 4. Build the kernel with the patched module from source. 5. Restart with the newly compiled kernel. Hopefully this gives you an overview. There are Forums which can answer your questions better, this is for bugtracking ;) Have Fun! -- Alps touchpad is recognized but synaptics clients and scrolling do not work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/550625 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
