I don't know; I'm not even sure how to start looking into this. Maybe you
could stop by the #debian-yeeloong IRC channel on OFTC and we could try to
figure it out?
I was at the IRC and got help with the network. With the command: dhclient
-v eth0 the networkport was activated.
So I did sudo apt-get update and then upgrade and went on with getting X
(graphical interface?) working.

But I got new problems now. Hope you can help me again.
I did this:
apt-get build-dep xorg-server
mkdir xorg-server
cd xorg-server
apt-get source xorg-server
# Unpacking should happen automatically # dpkg-source -x xorg-server*.dsc
cd xorg-server*/debian/patches/
wget http://jasonwoof.com/downloads/01_mips-sarea.diff
echo "01_mips-sarea.diff" >> series
cd ../..
but when I wanted to do this:
dpkg-buildpackage -b -uc
then I got this failure message:
tail: cannot open `debian/changelog' for reading: No such file or directory
dpgk-buildpackage: error: tail of debian/changelog gave error exit status 1
and I couldn't go on because the next step gave errors, too. So I tried to
do this:
apt will try want to 'upgrade' these packages to the repository versions and
so replacing the patched versions. The solution is to install devscripts so
that you can use dch -i which creates a bumped version of the packages.
I got to somewhere and don't know what to do there. So I closed it and tried
to go on with the last step, which was
Dpkg-buildpackage -b -uc
But I got the same error as before.
How do I need to go on?
