Compile the new 2.6.17 Linux kernel for IBM ThinkPad T43

I just finished compiling the newest 2.6.17 Linux kernel and I am getting much better performance. In what follows, I will show you how to compile and configure the latest kernel for IBM Thinkpad T43.

Before you begin, you will need to get a kernel
Download the 2.6.17 kernel and it’s performance patch: The 2.6.17 kernel
Latest Kernel Patch

1. Install needed utilities to configure the kernel
sudo apt-get install build-essential bin86 kernel-package libqt3-headers libqt3-mt-dev
2. Now we are going to move the kernel and unpack it.
sudo cp linux-2.6.16.tar.bz2 /usr/src
3. Now we are going to move to /usr/src
cd /usr/src
4. Now unpack it:
sudo tar -xvjf linux-2.6.17.tar.bz2
5. Rename the folder:
sudo mv linux-2.6.17/ linux-2.6.17ck1
6. Now we are going to remove the link to the linux directory:
sudo rm -rf linux
7. Make a new link to the new kernel:
sudo ln -s /usr/src/linux-2.6.17ck1 linux
8. Move to the Linux directory:
cd /usr/src/linux
9. Make yourself root:
sudo -s -H
10. Apply the performance patch:
bzcat /home/$USER/patch-2.6.17-ck1.bz2| patch -p1
11. Now we are going to import your current kernel configuration:
uname -r
12. Now import it: Make sure to replace the kernel version in this following command from the one from uname -r.
sudo cp /boot/config-2.6.14-ck1 .config
or you can download my .config file,full optmized for IBM T43

13.Configure the kernel:
make xconfig
14. Let’s build the kernel: Make sure that you are in /usr/src/linux with full root access. Make sure that you are. This will build a debian file that you can install.

Open Office无法正常启动的问题

我的open office启动时就挂住,或者异常退出。google了个把小时没有解决。最后用”暴力方式”解决了:

sudo apt-get remove openoffice.org*
sudo reboot
sudo apt-get install openoffice.org2

然后运行openoffice,一切正常。可能真的是RP问题:S

私奔 – 在欲望的城市,你就是我最后的信仰

颓废、崩溃、幸福、美丽、欲望、自由。。。一如以往,这就是郑钧这首《私奔》给我的感觉。 把青春献给身后那座 辉煌的都市 为了这个美梦 我们付出着代价 把爱情留给我身边最真心的姑娘 你陪我歌唱 你陪我流浪 陪我两败俱伤 一直到现在 才突然明白 我梦寐以求 是真爱和自由 想带上你私奔 奔向最遥远城镇 想带上你私奔 去做最幸福的人 在熟悉的异乡 我将自己一年年流放 穿过鲜花 走过荆棘 只为自由之地 在欲望的城市 你就是我最后的信仰 洁白如一道喜乐的光芒将我心照亮 不要再悲伤 我看到了希望 你是否还有勇气 随着我离去 想带上你私奔 奔向最遥远城镇 想带上你私奔 去做最幸福的人

十年生死两茫茫,不思量,自难忘。

今天看了新浪的一则新闻 六旬翁带妻子骨灰骑车周游全国各地 看完有想落泪的感觉,不是因为脆弱,而是因为一种久违的感动和震撼。一个平凡的老人,为了一个平凡的诺言,用他自己的方式将爱诠释得如此淋漓尽致。。。

十年生死两茫茫,
不思量,自难忘。
千里孤坟,无处话凄凉。
纵使相逢应不识,尘满面,鬓如霜。
夜来幽 梦忽还乡。
小轩窗,正梳妆。
相顾无言,惟有泪千行。
料得年年肠断处,明月夜,短松冈。
