… and saves me a ton of work. Tonight, I got the notification that there was a new kernel in FC8: 2.6.23.14-107.fc8. If you have been reading a long, you might know I was trying to roll my own kernel and modules to get my super-compact wifi usb dongle working. Well, tonight’s kernel release includes the elusive module, zd1211rw.ko AND my sounds is working, so I am really good to go.
We’ll see how the suspend / resume works on my laptop, since that’s been a little goofy.
I got to say I feel a little put off since I’ve put so much reading into how to build a customer kernel, modules, and recompile various the modules via the SOURCE rpm’s; sprms’s. So a good learning experince nontheless, but I am just happy that it appears that it will work. I can spend less time polishing my hammer!
