fake-uname

Post by JRD »

Here is a package of a little bash script of mine : fake-uname.
It's a program to help compile drivers and modules against a specific version of a kernel, and not the one currently running.
This is usefull if you don't have the full hand on the build process or don't want to modify it. Most (all ?) build process use the "uname" process to determine the current kernel version and then deduce the correct path for modules, sources, headers and the like.
This package help to fake the real kernel running.
Just run fake-uname-activate kernel_ver to use it.
