[gentoo-user] kernel-5.4.69

[Jude DaShiell]

How can I emerge the sources for this version of the kernel?  I think John
suggested 5.4.69.

emerge -1a gentoo-sources:5.4.69

You need to be running ~arch for this, or have gentoo-sources in
package.accept_keywords, 5.4.66 is the latest in stable.

Just emerge =sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-5.4.69  The = sign is
important, you can emerge any specific version in the tree this way.

.66 is certainly OK as well, I am on the ~arch which I happen to find
useful.

Okay thanks.  When I tried that I got a message masked by amd64 keyword
and returned to the chroot prompt.

I run ~arch here, but not for the kernel as it involves too many reboots.

If you really want to specify the version on the command line with a  one-liner,
couple it with the `--autounmask`  and  `--autounmask-continue`  options,  which
will automatically add the requested version to  your  `package.accept_keywords`
directory/file and emerge from there.
        
        $ emerge -1 --autounmask --autounmask-continue \ 
                =sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-5.4.69

I got 5.4.66 sources installed and then did:
emerge --unmerge espeakup espeak portaudio
emerge espeakup espeak portaudio
One of the messages stated config_speakup and config_speakup-synth_soft
options are not configured in this kernel and those would have to be set
correctly to avoid unexpected behavior.

At this point I'm curious what file is used to store these options since
it may be necessary to edit that file directly with nano and dump this
menuconfig.

When configuring your kernel, you have to enable Staging first, under
Device Drivers and closer to the bottom than the top.  Once you enable
that, then you can find and enable the speakup parts.  If you don't have
Staging enabled, the speakup parts are hidden.  There are also options
in the Staging sub-menu that you may need as well. 

Hope that helps.
