You’re a God among men, Mr. Elliott. Thank you kindly.

I’m no god. As a matter of fact, read this post: [url]http://fogproject.org/forum/threads/fog-community.6944/#post-16616[/url]

I think you’ll fully understand that I am still a human.

At any rate. Kernel.3.0.1.64 has been built and is available on the Unofficial Kernel’s page. If this get’s enough attention, I’ll post it to the Sourceforge site to make it “official”, after building the 32bit equivalent.

[Jordon Rapp]

Thank you for all your help. Unfortunately, our 780s are 32 bit, so this does me no good ATM.

[Tom Elliott]

780’s are 32 bit?

When they load they’re loading the bzImage32 and init_32.xz?

[Jordon Rapp]

Well they should be, they are 32 bit processors. But it does look as though they are loading init.xz

edit: and bzImage, but the OS shows that it is 32 bit.

The OS being 32 bit doesn’t mean the System is 32 bit. You can install 32 bit OS’s on 64 bit systems. You CANNOT install 64 bit OS’s on 32 bit systems.

My guess is your systems have 64 bit capable processors. This makes sense since nearly all processors are 64 bit now-a-days. There are a few exceptions with netbooks and maybe some extremely cheap laptop’s.

[Jordon Rapp]

Oh yes, how foolish of me. It is in-fact a 64 bit processor from Intel. Let me give this a try.

[Jordon Rapp]

It works. Holy Sh*t (can I swear on this forum?) it works. You are a saint Tom, I don’t care what your bio says.

Jordan, I’m going to try something to allow for more modern drivers and packages

But still have functionality of the e1000e drivers.

Do you mind testing for me?

I’m basically going to steal the drivers from the e1000e directory of 3.0.1 kernel and plunk them into my 3.15.0 kernel. Will you be willing?

I’m not deleting the old kernel’s so stuff will still be good okay?

[Jordon Rapp]

Anything. I am very willing to help out.

[Jordon Rapp]

OK, one last thing. I added the host to fog, and when I went into management, it was blank. I can’t add anything, it says “No user history data found.”

[Jordon Rapp]

Never mind, I just manually added the host

I’m happy to test any of the kernels for the Dell 755/760/780 and provide feedback.
