Does anyone know if Jamie's kernel included in AlphaWolf's init framework here (http://www.dealdatabase.com/forum/showpost.php?p=216711&postcount=53) is the same as this one (http://www.dealdatabase.com/forum/showpost.php?p=202967&postcount=26) (i.e. has the S2 Unscamble patch)?

Thanks,

Rob

Thanks for the response Jamie. Will the kernel you posted with the S2 Unscramble patch work for software version 6.2, or only 4.x?

Thanks for the response Jamie. Will the kernel you posted with the S2 Unscramble patch work for software version 6.2, or only 4.x?TiVo software version 6.2 uses a 2.4.20 linux kernel, so you'll want to use the vmlinux.px.3.1.5x kernel from the s2_unscramble package.

Is there no overhead from the s2_unscramble that would merit a non-s2_unscramble kernel that is configured with the config_netfilter et al configured?

If you want a kernel for 6.2 that has CONFIG_NETFILTER off that does not have the s2_unscramble patch, see the kernel the OP asked about (in AlphaWolf's framework), or build your own using variations on these (http://www.dealdatabase.com/forum/showthread.php?t=46361) scripts. If you want a kernel for 6.2 that does have the s2_unscramble patch, use the 3.1.5x kernel in the s2_unscramble package.

Clear as mud?

That's what I figured. I was hoping to find a compatible kernel with the S2 Unscramble patch, and CONFIG_NETFILTER turned off to help facilitate getting recordings off.

Thanks again, especially for all the work you have done (and I'm sure are currently doing)

Sorry, I misread his post and your reply. I thought the options were s2_unscramble with CONFIG_NETFILTER off or one that wasn't s2_unscramble and had CONFIG_NETFILTER on. I was asking if there should be a third option, no s2_unscramble and CONFIG_NETFILER off. Obviously, a stock kernel is the no s2_unscramble with CONFIG_NETFILTER on. Brainfart.

Ah, I see now. The info was buried at the end of the README. I couldn't find anything in the s2_unscramble - Unscramble for Series 2 (http://www.dealdatabase.com/forum/showthread.php?t=39207&highlight=s2+unscramble) thread that noted the included kernels had the CONFIG_NETFILTER turned off and assumed that it wasn't the case.

I wish the 3.1.5x kernel had CONFIG_FILTER turned on, but that issue is easier to work around. Thanks again.
