[2023-01-28T00:36:00Z] <niceguy5000[m]> framebuffer is life!!!! [2023-01-28T00:37:26Z] <niceguy5000[m]> pinephone pro with kiss= best phone!!! [2023-01-28T04:08:25Z] <sewn> Hi [2023-01-28T04:15:28Z] <testuser[m]> Hi [2023-01-28T15:15:04Z] <windy-aftermath> Hello! The install instructions say that I should manually download, patch, build and install the Linux kernel. Will I have to do all of that manually every time a new kernel version is released? Can I somehow add kernel.org as a source, so a command like ¨kiss build Linux¨ would work? [2023-01-28T15:15:42Z] <sewn> you can make a linux package for kiss [2023-01-28T15:15:55Z] <sewn> also, which install instructions are you using? [2023-01-28T15:16:30Z] <windy-aftermath> The official ones, at https://kisslinux.org/install [2023-01-28T15:17:00Z] <sewn> kisslinux currently is on hiatus, the maintainer dylanaraps has dissapeared [2023-01-28T15:17:03Z] <sewn> you should use this installation guide [2023-01-28T15:17:04Z] <sewn> https://kisscommunity.org/kiss/install/ [2023-01-28T15:20:09Z] <windy-aftermath> Yes, I have this guide opened in a second tab. However, it frequently refers to the official one. The guide on kisscommunity.org doesn´t even mention downloading a kernel, it just elaborates on the one at kisslinux.org [2023-01-28T15:20:33Z] <sewn> the kernel is intended to be managed by the user [2023-01-28T15:20:42Z] <sewn> whether that be local installation or managed by kiss [2023-01-28T15:24:04Z] <windy-aftermath> so is there a convenient way to get notified when a new Linux kernel releases? I would imagine I need to setup the config file only once, so the build process for updates will just be downloading and building the new source using the old config? [2023-01-28T15:25:09Z] <sewn> you can use git source lol [2023-01-28T15:25:27Z] <sewn> there is kiss-outdated [2023-01-28T15:29:04Z] <windy-aftermath> so I can make a new package as described [here](https://kisslinux.org/wiki/package-system) and place something like git.kernel.org as a source? [2023-01-28T15:29:25Z] <sewn> you can use https://github.com/hovercats/kiss-dumpsterfire/tree/master/extra/linux for reference yes [2023-01-28T15:29:40Z] <windy-aftermath> alright, thanks! [2023-01-28T17:32:46Z] <tprepper> yay, got KISS to work. finally [2023-01-28T17:32:54Z] <sewn> congrats [2023-01-28T17:33:02Z] <tprepper> on Linux 5.15.90 though [2023-01-28T17:33:35Z] <tprepper> wasn't sure if the Gentoo kernel config I found for my ThinkPad model would work on 6.1.8 [2023-01-28T17:37:17Z] <illiliti> make oldconfig [2023-01-28T17:37:23Z] <illiliti> you need this2 [2023-01-28T17:51:58Z] <tprepper> ah [2023-01-28T17:52:00Z] <tprepper> neat
