To compile the kernel on linux follow these steps:

1. Download Android ndk from here

2. Extract above archive to your home directory

3. Extract kernel folder from within the archive you posted.

4. export the environmental var CROSS_COMPILE like so:

export CROSS_COMPILE=~/android-ndk-r4b/build/prebuilt/linux-x86/arm-eabi-4.4.0/bin/arm-eabi-

5. Get your hands on a config for that kernel.if you are running the same kernel version on your phone you can simple extract the one from /proc/config.gz using adb or similar.

6. If you want to make any changes use your favorite config configuration tool:

[From root of kernel source]

make ARCH=arm menuconfig

7.Then build the kernel:

[From root of kernel source]

make ARCH=arm

8. Follow instructions here to repack a boot.img ( from a nandroid backup or similar )

try using:

mkbootimg --cmdline 'mem=128M console=ttyMSM2,115200n8 androidboot.hardware=qcom console=ttyUSBCONSOLE0 androidboot.console=ttyUSBCONSOLE0' --kernel boot-kernel.gz --ramdisk ramdisk-repack.cpio.gz --output newboot.img

to repack, where boot-kernel.gz is your zImage in $kernel_src/arch/arm/boot after compilation.

9. flash using fastboot flash boot newboot.img

I'm not too sure about the "fuse" source - looks like you need autotools but there is no no configure.in ...

P.S I haven't got this working yet but it will get you started ;D

Unless you are are making changes to the kernel/config there isn't really much point of recompiling it - it will be exactly the same.
