DKMS
-------------------------
Ubuntu includes support to build modules using a utility developed by
Dell, called DKMS. It will automatically build your kernel module
for you when you first boot into the kernel (or as necessary).
See the DKMS man page for more information.
Note: the OBSOLETE_BY line in dkms.conf may specify a kernel version
which obsoletes the necessity for this particular DKMS module.
For example, OBSOLETE_BY=2.6.39 will prevent DKMS from building
modules for kernels >= 2.6.39.
Source building
-------------------------
Starting with Intrepid, an extra target has been added to allow
--buildpkg Ubuntu/source. This target should be adequate for
sending up to the Ubuntu archive. By keeping the same source package
in both places, there should be fewer conflicts for people.
On a semiregular basis, the debian/changelog should be merged
into this package, but people adding to the Ubuntu archive should
be sure to update these sorts of things otherewise.
Kernel patches
-------------------------
If you need to provide a kernel patch (say for a kernel not formally
supported yet by AMD), you can add this patch in the debian/patches
directory. It will only be used for the current development release,
as indicated in debian/rules. When upgrading from current development
release to next development release, this codename in debian/rules should
be bumped too.
Copyright file
-------------------------
The copyright file is automatically generated in debian/rules by
concatenating debian/copyright_stub0, AMD's EULA and debian/
copyright_stub1. This allows us to always ship the latest EULA
from AMD.
In order to update the copyright file manually it's sufficient to use
the "debclean" command.
Update procedure
-------------------------
When a new -fglrx is available, do the following to update
fglrx-installer:
0. On your build system, make sure you have the prerequisites
installed:
$ sudo apt-get build-dep fglrx-installer
1. Download the archive file and unpack it to get the .run file
2. Do a --buildpkg Ubuntu/source, which will build a diff.gz,
orig.tar.gz and an unsigned dsc. For example:
$ bash ./ati-driver-installer-*.run --buildpkg Ubuntu/source
This might prompt for your password for sudo privs. It may
install things to your system it needs for constructing the
source packages, such as cdbs, libstdc++, etc. (As of 8.600
it seems to no longer do this for source pkgs.)
3. dpkg-source -x that dsc to unpack it into a directory, then
cd into the resultant directory.
4. dch -e to update the new changelog entry.
Make sure to mark out any bugs that get closed with it.
Also doublecheck that it includes debian/ changes up to the current
Ubuntu version; if not, some merging may be required.
5. debuild -S to produce a new .dsc
6. Verify the new .dsc produces valid .debs by running it through
pbuilder, sbuild, etc. as usual.
7. Install and test the .debs, and then dput the .changes file
If any changes to files in debian/ are needed, make sure to let the
maintainer (Alberto aka tseliot) know, so he can sync them into the git
tree AMD pulls from.
