Fedora 11 LXDE

I have with success installed Fedora 11 LXDE on my AAO 110 SSD 512MB Ram.
With some minor tweaks almost everything seeems to work, like both card readers, wifi. I haven't tested the internal mic, but sound is ok.
Battery time is no good, just ab. 1 H 45 min.

For Ubuntu there is the awesome Kuki/Sickboy kernel. Has anyone made a customized kernel for Fedora 11?

 

I haven't seen a custom kernel for Fedora, but you can use the Kuki kernel in Fedora. It's not hard; just a bit messy to set up. Open the deb using xarchiver, manually place all the bits and pieces that go into /boot and /lib/modules, generate your initrd file, add a stanza to grub.conf to point to the new kernel, and you should be good to go.

 

Thank you.

Will it also be possible to convert the .deb kernel package to a .rpm package using Alien, and then install it like an ordinary .rpm?

Sorry for my ignorance, but how do I generate an initrd file, and howto add a stanza to grub.conf?

 

Haven't tried using alien to do the installation. My guess is that initrd creation might have to be done manually. man mkinitrd for details. The only parameters I feed to mkinitrd are the image name (something like initrd-2.6.31-14-generic.img) and the kernel version (for my example initrd.img file, it would be 2.6.31-14.generic)

 

Thank you.
I tried with Alien, but the generated .rpm package was not installable.
Using the default kernel. I don't take the risk by manually installation of the Kuki kernel.
Fedora 11 with LXDE fits well to this box.
By the way, Fedora's update system is very fast and good
