[Q] Cifs-Support within Kernel

Hi,
I am just wondering why cifs-support does not apperar in any of the modded kernels? Is there no common request for it?
I for myself would love to stream media in my wifi-network at home. The available separate cifs.ko (and additional files like slow-work.ko) are installable by script for use in cifsmanager for example, but it is not convenient to install it after every reboot (and I dont get the sense of the additional files, too).
Is there any reason (kernel gets to slow/to big)? As far as I can see it is integrated in 2.2-Kernels for other mobiles.
Sorry for my english,
regards

it takes space, and imho it's less useful than tun.ko support. You can compile one with cifs support though.

Maybe at least CONFIG_SLOW_WORK=y should be configured(I don't know if it is on custom kernels). This will remove the need for a second module for cifs and it's pretty small (130kb)

[Q] OpenVpn Dev tun.ko Support with Gingerbread CF-Root-Image

Hi XDA-Dev-Team,
first of all ... thanks for the great work to get Tab working with Gingerbread.
I wan´t to use openvpn with the CF-Root-Image from Chainfire but it looks like there is no dev tun.ko module ?! So Open-Vpn does not work !!
I have tried to build my own kernel with tun-support as module from the Stock-Kernel i have downloaded from opensource.samsung.com. But when i take this module to the Tab i get an error from insmod like this:
insmod: invalid module format
dmesg:
tun: exports duplicate symbol tun_get_socket (owned by kernel)
So is it possible to build a rootes-kernel with this tun.ko module included or is there a other trick to get this work ?
Thanks
Mario

[Q] How to load CIFS Kernel Module / Get CIFS working?

I'm on Serenity KK4 RC6. I'd like to take advantage of CIFS to mount network shares.
Serenity uses the Samurai Kernel, and I'm not sure if that supports CIFS, i know the module isn't loaded by default.
Talon, for example, has support. But i have no idea how to enable that module.
Does anyone know how to get CIFS working?
Thanks!

[Q] CIFS support? cifs.ko module?

Hey all,
I'd love to have CIFS capability on my HTC One M7. I'm currently running Android Revolution HD Google Play Edition, 6.6 or something like that I think, don't remember exactly. Kernel version is 3.4.10 (I think that's what's really relevant here anyway)
Does anyone know where I can get a CIFS module to compile into the kernel or into a .ko to load in? Or do .ko's require any special compiling or prep to work? I assume I don't have it, since in CifsManager and the like I get a no such device error yet ES File Explorer works fine for getting to the target SMB IP. One time I had to make a change to my Debian laptop's kernel and re-compile, so maybe I can figure it out if I have a cifs module to compile. But I'm still a noob at this, so any help is much appreciated. Thanks!

Hi all, if your goal is simply to play music and video from your NAS to your android device, you can use Kodi (xbmc) that can access cifs path directly!
