[ltt-dev] LTTng-patched kernel package available for Ubuntu Lucid

[Alexandre Montplaisir]

 Hi all,

Due to popular demand, the patched kernel package (as well as the "lttng" meta-package) have been added to the Lucid repository in the project's PPA.[1]

It's a simple backport of the same package that was already available for Maverick, which means it is based on version 2.6.35. In some rare cases it could lead to compatibility problems, if you are using modules specific to 2.6.32 for example (like some graphics card of wireless drivers).
For those who need to stay on 2.6.32, you can manually build LTTng v0.198 [2] for 2.6.32.9 instead.
