5. Untar the kernel in home directory:
tar xzf linux-3.1.tar.gz
This command creates a directory named linux-3.1 and untars all the files into
this directory.
6. Apply the kernel patches by using the patch utility:
cd linux-3.1
patch -p1 < ../cdv-gfx-drivers-1.0.3_bee/src/kernel-ttm-clear-
high.patch
patch -p1 < ../cdv-gfx-drivers-1.0.3_bee/cedarview-kernel-
v1.0.3_bee.patch
7. Edit
drivers/staging/Kconfig and add the following line:
source "drivers/staging/cdv/Kconfig"
8. Edit drivers/staging/Makefile and add the following line:
obj-$(CONFIG_DRM_INTEL_CDV) += cdv/
9. We are now ready to build the kernel. Note that the next step will use the config file
from the current installations /boot directory which could be a PAE image. We will
want to make sure that we reset that option with menuconfig.
10.Configure and compile the kernel:
linux32 make menuconfig
The kernel configuration window pops up and looks like the following:
a. Using the arrow key and Enter, select Processor type and features --- >
b. Using the arrow key and Enter, select High Memory Support (64GB) --->
c. If you see High Memory Support (4GB) --> instead, skip the next 2 steps.
d. Move the cursor to 4 GB and press the spacebar to select.
e. Exit one level.
f. Using the arrow key and Enter, select Device driver --- >
g. Using the arrow key and Enter, select Staging drivers --- >
h. Select Intel CDV (load along with IMG driver) and then press the spacebar.
This will load the release driver.
