I have been running Salix 14.2 on my laptop for several years and this week I installed Salix on my desktop also.
My WiFi adapter in my desktop is buggy and I need to build a patch in order to get it work correctly. I installed dkms without any issues.
However, I am not able to install the correct kernel source. See the results below.
Code: Select all
jumper@darkstar ~ $ uname -a
Linux darkstar 4.4.19 #2 SMP Mon Aug 22 14:37:39 CDT 2016 x86_64 Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU E8400 @ 3.00GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux
jumper@darkstar ~ $
jumper@darkstar ~ $ sudo slapt-get -i kernel-source

Can someone help on how to install the kernel-source for 4.4.19? Why is it trying to pull the source for 4.4.75 though the installed kernel is 4.4.19?
Thanks,
Balaji.
