* sisfb source (06/19-1)
Installation:
* You need a complete Linux kernel source tree on your machine.
* It has come to my attention that RedHat and perhaps some other distros have patched the kernel in a way that makes it impossible to compile my version of sisfb. Bad luck. Use a stock kernel instead. These work well, too.
不幸的是我用的就是redhat linux , 而且我不明白“stock kernel” 指什么?难道直接使用其他发行版的内核文件? 还请大家指点一下。
安装步骤的第五步(5. The SiS framebuffer driver (sisfb)) , 提到这一步只能用源码来装,又说 redhat不能安装成功(It has come to my attention that RedHat and perhaps some other distros have patched the kernel in a way that makes it impossible to compile my version of sisfb. Bad luck) ,但紧接着提到:
Use a stock kernel instead. These work well, too. 这最后一句该如何理解呢?
