Recompiling the Kernel for 8.10

[DiscipleDOC]

Have anyone done this yet? Are there any step-by-step instructions on how to do this?

This should work OK for Ubuntu as well

I post you from an vanilla kernel 2.6.28 (ubuntu intrepid)

to compile the kernel it's quite easy using the debian tools in ubuntu

http://mapopa.blogspot.com/2009/01/compiling-2.html
after the kernel was compiled i have installed it with dpkg

$ sudo dpkg -i /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.28-vanillaice_2.6.28-vanillaice-10.00.Custom_amd64.deb

also downloaded the 180.x driver and installed from comand line
after the gdm was stopped

$sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
$sudo sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-180.22-pkg2.run
$sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start

For ubu/debian systems use KernelCheck. The instructions/ideas here are pretty good also...http://howto.wikia.com/wiki/Howto_configure_the_Linux_kernel
