Source codes for intel eth and graphic devices

Post#1 by **Grossman** » 26 Sep 2023, 14:14

We are still running Porteus v4.0 x86_64, because we have a lot our changes made in the system. We buyed new PCs HP ProOne 440 Gen9 and its looked we must compile new drivers for eth (e1000e) and graphics (i915) cards.
Could anybody help/tell me where I can download sources code for this devices?

In the file 06-crippled_sources-6.5.5-64bit.xzm are some files for i915, but they are in directory "include/drm" and I don't know hot to use them in the linux-4.16.3 source tree.

Thanks a lot.

Hi Grossman,
try to update kernel Porteus Kernel Builder (Пост Blaze #95853)
Not bad if you backup your old kernel then update it via this howto

Code: Select all

All operations must be performed as root user!

# replace 000-kernel.xzm
# remove crippled_sources.xzm
# optionally add 06-crippled_sources-NNN-XXbit.xzm
/path-to/porteus/base

# replace vmlinuz
/path-to/boot/syslinux

# reboot Porteus
