Subject: Noob question: Development Environment
Date: Mon, 12 Nov 2012 09:49:54 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <071701cdc0fe$218fc9b0$64af5d10$@com> (raw)
Greetings. Sorry to interrupt with a newbie question, but I need some help
on setting up a linux wireless development and test environment. What I
would like to have is a stable development and test environment where I can
work for a period of months without having to upgrade the kernel version on
my development and test machines, but staying close to the bleeding edge
with the core wireless modules and drivers.
I have successfully built the wireless-testing tree from GIT, but have only
discovered how to install the entire kernel produced from the build, not
just the wireless modules. What I would like to do is to install only the
wireless modules, as I can do with the compat-wireless tree. I have gotten
compat-wireless to work for me with a lot of labor (refreshing patches), but
I'm unsure of the correct work-flow with it.
How are you folks accomplishing this?
Please feel free to point me to the archives or a web page. I've groped all
around the internet and have failed to answer my questions. (If you point
me to the archives, please give me a keyword to search on as I have looked
and been unsuccessful in finding the relevant information.)
Thank you very much!
Paul Stoaks
