Hi I want to install the sony laptop module in my kernel, I think I'm right that its not on the disc iso, I can't find it. Is it poss to clone my kernel and config as it is and then add the module, or can I add it without recompiling, some pointers as to how to do either would be good! I have already made some changes that I don't what to have to redo.
Thanks Dave.

Learn how to use the package manager to see if the file you want is already available in a package.
For example:
First recharge the package managers database to sync it with the repo.
# tazpkg recharge
Now search for the module filename.
# tazpkg search-pkgname sony-laptop.ko
The output will tell you which package contains the file.
Install the package.
# tazpkg get-install <pkg name from search result>
You can also find the same information here for any version of slitaz: http://pkgs.slitaz.org
Choose File from dropdown on left.
Choose the slitaz version on right.
Make sure kernel version is the same as your running version.Posted 11 years ago #
