Contents.Stable compat-wireless releasesThis page is dedicated to the stable kernel compat-wireless releases. These releases are based on stable kernel versions. Every stable version should be compatible with every kernel = 2.6.26, like the bleeding edge releases. This started with the and will continue for all stable kernels releases. These stable releases are intended for users looking for more stability than what releases provide.Case for supportWireless vendors are encouraged to use these releases for support purposes as no extra tree needs to be created and supported. Stable fixes must always be sent upstream as well.

This ensures wireless vendors are testing with stable kernels and helping stabilize the kernels further.LegendExtra flag meanings:.s - get and apply pending-stable/ from linux-next.git.n - apply the patches linux-next-cherry-picks directory.p - apply the patches on the linux-next-pending directory.c - apply the patches on the crap directoryRelease with no extra flags are simply vanilla releases of the kernel. Users are encouraged to use the -spn releases as these releases will have extra fixes not yet propagated. The -s flag for example indicates that the release has patches marked as stable which will be released by the next 2.6.x.y release of the kernel so you might as well get them now. Linux distributions are encouraged to use the extra flagged releases as well. We provide the vanilla releases for those Linux distributions which just want vanilla for whatever reason.compat-wireless 2.6.38 stable releases.

Ensure /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build/ exists and points to the location where the kernel headers are installed. If you do not have them, read your distribution's documentation on getting help.Unpacking sourceAfter downloading, unpack the source by typing (as example: version 2.6.32-rc5): tar -xf /path/to/compat-wireless-2.6.32-rc5.tar.bz2Note: Modern tar selects decompressor automatically (otherwise add '–bzip2' or '-j').Building and installingcd /path/to/compat-wireless-2.6.32-rc5./scripts/driver-select makesudo make installUnloadingAfter build and installation unload modules and drivers: sudo make unloadLoadingTo load the new shiny drivers either reboot or just modprobe the module you want. To test whether or not the new drivers are being picked up you can use modprobe -l on the modules, you should see the wireless modules being picked up using the updates/ directory instead of the kernel/ directory. For example (ath9k driver):$ modules='cfg80211 mac80211 ath9k'$ for i in $modules; do sudo modprobe -l $i; done/lib/modules/2.6.27-11-generic/updates/net/wireless/cfg80211.ko/lib/modules/2.6.27-11-generic/updates/net/mac80211/mac80211.ko/lib/modules/2.6.27-11-generic/updates/drivers/net/wireless/ath9k/ath9k.koNote that the make install command will output this for you so you can just look at that.Note #2: If you got no network connection automatically, try to restart your network. For Debian systems do: sudo /etc/init.d/networking restartBugsIf you find a bug, please ensure you are on the latest kernel for that series. Bugs should be reported upstream on the.
You may also want to address this on the linux-wireless mailing list first. For more details please see our.PatchesIf you have a patch for an bug please also ensure you are using the latest release for the respective kernel. If unsure you can ask on the linux-wireless mailing list. If you are sure its a fix you can send the patches to:To: stable@kernel.orgCc: linux-wireless@vger.kernel.orgMaintaining of releasesRefer to the section for details on how the stable releases are made and how to checkout the compat-wireless code for those releases.This is a static dump of the wiki, taken after locking it in January 2015.
