Re: [fuse-devel] Procedure to update FUSE in older kernel

[Effrem N. <eno...@jh...>]

Goswin,

Thank you for your reply. Yes, I'd love to be able to just update the whole kernel but we have an application that is tied to a specific kernel version so I can't just update it.

Thanks!

Specifically, I'd like to get the latest version of FUSE working in Ubuntu 8.10. I built the library and fusermount without problems, but it appears that the sources for the kernel module come with the kernel and not with the FUSE source download - maybe that's incorrect which is why I'm asking for a doc or procedure. Thanks in advance!

Isn't it way way easier to update the kernel as a whole?
