INSTALLATION

Code:

# tar xvzf linux_2.6.32.61-plus-20131128.tar.gz -C / # depmod -a 2.6.32.61-plus

Use this kernel with ubiboot
Gone are the days of flashing kernels!

Be sure to depmod the new kernel, and add the kernel filename to ubiboot.conf

Instructions for installation without Ubiboot can be found here.
NON-UBIBOOT USERS: PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING
There are apparently very valid reasons to not use it.
However, please do not spam the thread with help requests - you have chosen an unsupported installation method, a provisionary but complete one has been made.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] [DEV] kernel-plus 2.6.32.59 for Harmattan

No, it does not include injection components.

I'll look Gnedt's upstreamed patches for anything I can find.
Once a few people report this as working, I'll start working on support for injection and AP mode (IIRC the Joikuspot app only uses Ad-hoc mode on the N9)

Re: [ANNOUNCE] [DEV] kernel-plus 2.6.32.59 for Harmattan

Could you also perhaps include e-yes's Android patches as well to make this kernel compatible with NitDroid or is that beyond the scope of this project?

Also +1 on AP mode

Hurrian

2012-09-02 02:21

Re: [ANNOUNCE] [DEV] kernel-plus 2.6.32.59 for Harmattan

New build changelog:

Enabled GUID partitions in the kernel config, if you feel like having a lot of partitions
Enabled PPP, PPTP and L2TP-related options in the kernel config.
Included an install script. No clue how to do Debian packaging, so this'll have to do.

While interesting, I think this'll be left as a side/alternative project, as I intend to only support Harmattan. If someone can diff the patches for the NITDroid kernel though, I can probably leave it as an optional component.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] [DEV] kernel-plus 2.6.32.59 for Harmattan

Weird. Grab the zImage inside the "boot" folder in the tar.xz and try to flash it using

Code:

flasher -f -k zImage

In the meantime, can anyone else try running the flashing script?

EDIT: Just got tipped by MFaroTusino to try disabling your lock code, if any.

See the first post for real installation instructions.

Can you include/enable swap free notify? This would help lower swap+ram usage and be a huge performance boost.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] [DEV] kernel-plus 2.6.32.59 for Harmattan

@Hurrian

Re kernel patch, it does different stuff.
Mostly it replaces return calls with 'return 0;' to return an OK answer to calling functions.
In a few places lines are added, or deleted, to further immobilize Aegis.
I think, if you read the patch file '+ and -' the changes will be easy to recognize (compare the two file versions at + and - and you will see what is being changed at those lines in the files)

Ubuntu 10.04 was the distribution.
The patching I did all manually (based on the original 1.1 patch, and added a few of my own), my patch is also for 1.2 mind you, I am not sure how it applies to 1.3.
Probably better to manually compare the 5 files and do it manually.

Wouldnt mind doing this for you, takes 10 minutes, but I will be out all next week for a job in nice Italy :)

Re: [ANNOUNCE] [DEV] kernel-plus 2.6.32.59 for Harmattan

Well, crap. It seems that on-device flashes simply don't work. I've updated the first post with flashing information.

For those already with open mode kernels, flashing this one is exactly the same (although, you do need to copy in the new modules)

You're supposed to copy the modules from lib/modules inside the tar.bz2 into /lib/modules/2.6.32.59-plus, then recreate the symlink to /lib/modules/current.

No, no, no and no.

modules.order must also be copied into /lib/modules/2.6.32.59-plus/

...And done. New build is in first post.

The 2012.09.05 builds also include certain patches from 2.6.32.59-ck2. These should have minimal effect on system performance.

Re: [Announce] [12.09.05] kernel-plus 2.6.32.59 for Harmattan

I am really sorry to sound stupid, i am still quite new to this.

So this a kernel update for the Harmattan devices (N9)?

The 2.6.32.59 was released in 2012-03-17, while the latest stable kernel is 3.5.3 2012-08-26 is it possible to use the 3.5.3?

Sorry for this question i just hope someone could explain this to me. Thank you :)

Re: [Announce] [12.09.05] kernel-plus 2.6.32.59 for Harmattan

It's the latest 2.6.32 patch. Porting Nokia's patches for things not in mainline would take a long, long time.

oh wow!!! Then it has to be cross compiled or natively complied on the device?

Thank you for that!

One question: Will I be able to dual-boot with this kernel?

Edit 1:

Looks like I got stuck on a reboot loop :/

Maybe nitdroid kernel caused the problem?

Edit 2:

Flashed back nitdroid kernel and the N9 came back to life :)

Flashing the kernel you provided is causing reboot loop, I don't know why....

Re: [Announce] [12.09.05] kernel-plus 2.6.32.59 for Harmattan

You need to also install the modules that come with it. Also, I haven't enabled the Android drivers or pull in the Android patches from e-yes, so that's that.

Also, I'm still missing the Aegis disabler patches, so that may be a cause of bootloops.
